Quick Start

ControlNet PLC-5 Hot Backup System

(Including ControlNet PLC-5 Hot Backup Cartridge, Cat. No.

1785-CHBM)

The ControlNet PLC-5 backupsystem uses a pair of standard PLC-5/40 or

PLC-5/80 ControlNet processors, with I/O remotely connected to the

processors via ControlNet.

Note: For the ControlNet PLC-5 processors to operate in backup mode,

each processor must have the new ControlNet Backup Cartridge (Cat. No.

1785-CHBM) inserted into its EEPROM memory module slot.

UsingControlNet,thePLC-5processorscommunicatewitheachotherand

with ControlNet remote I/O to create a PLC-5 backup system that provides

high availability of control applications, where it is essential for continuity

in the process to be high.

This manual provides you with the information you need to get up and

running with your ControlNet PLC-5 backup system. For more detailed

information, refer to your ControlNet PLC-5 Hot Backup System User

Manual (publication 1785-6.5.24) and the ControlNet PLC-5

Programmable Controllers User Manual, phase 1.5 (publication

1785.6.5.22).

Installing The Hardware

Follow these steps to install the required hardware for your backup system.

1. Set the ControlNet node address numbers for each of the PLC-5

processors.

The addresses must be consecutive, with the lower number being odd.

For example, a valid node address pair is 1 and 2. You can set the

ControlNet node address via the rotary switches on the top of each

processor.

2. Insert the ControlNet backup cartridge into the EEPROM slot of each

PLC-5 processor.

Note: If the ControlNet backup cartridge is not inserted into the

PLC-5 processor, that processor will operate as a normal, standalone

processor, and will not exhibit any of the necessary backup functions.

3. Install each PLC-5 processor into a separate 1771 chassis.

4. Install a power supply for each chassis, and connect to ac power.

5. Wire the ControlNet network to the PLC-5 processors and to the I/O

adapters being used for the backup system.

The network cabling may consist of single or redundant channels.

Configuring Your Backup System

Before you begin, make sure that you have installed RSLinx, RSLogix5,

RSNetWorx, and the Hot Backup Configuration application software. For

assistance with installing any of these packages, refer to their respective

installation documentation.

You must complete the following steps to configure your backup system.

These steps assume that both processors are in the default memory state

(i.e., there is no program loaded).

1. Initialize the system.

2. Configure handshaking messages with RSNetWorx.

3. Configure I/O.

4. Create and configure the backup integer file.

5. Verify the backup system.

Initialize the System

To begin configuring your backup system, you must be sure that both

processors are in the initialized state. To do so:

1. Launch RSLogix 5.

2. Connect to the first processor.

3. Clear memory.

4. Assign a name to your project and save it.

5. Connect to the second processor, and repeat steps 3 and 4.

ControlNet PLC-5 Hot Backup System 5

Publication 1785-10.8 - October 1998

Configure Handshaking Messages With RSNetWorx

Within your backup system, you must use RSNetWorx to set up the send

and receive scheduled messages that allow handshaking to occur between

the two ControlNet PLC-5 processors that comprise your hot backup

system.

1. For each processor node of your backup system, you must create two

scheduled peer-to-peer messages; there must be one Send and one

Receive message for each. These messages must be exactly 5 words in

length.

2. Record the Send and Receive message numbers from the odd processor

node below:

Send message number: __________

Receive message number: __________

You will use these numbers later in the configuration process.

3. For the Requested Packet Interval (RPI), enter a value from 1 to 32,767.

This value must be no less than the NUT value, but no greater than 2

timestheNUT valueminus1. ThisvaluemustbethesameinbothPLC-

5 processors.

Configure I/O

Configure any adapters you have in your backup system by changing the

connection from the default setting of Exclusive Owner to a Redundant

connection.

Note: You must do this for BOTH processors.

Once you have changed the connection setting, you can save your

configuration. If the system is properly configured, the I/O LEDs on the

ControlNet PLC-5 processors will change from flashing red to solid green.

Publication 1785-10.8 - October 1998

Create and Configure the ControlNet Backup Integer File

1. Launch RSLogix 5.

2. Create an integer file with a length of exactly 200 words. Do this on

both processors.

3. Launch the Hot Backup Configuration application software.

4. Enter the odd node address of the pair of modules in your system.

5. Select the RSLinx Driver you are using to attach to the PLC-5

processors.

6. Click on the processor you wish to configure, and set the following:

•Backup File - This is the 200-word integer data file number created

in RSLogix 5 (e.g. N20).

•Send Message - Enter the message number of the Send Scheduled

Message from the odd node address. (Refer to the number you

recorded earlier.)

•Receive Message - Enter the message number of the Receive

ScheduledMessagefromtheoddnodeaddress. (Refertothenumber

you recorded earlier.)

Refer to the ControlNet PLC-5 Hot Backup System User Manual

(publication1785-6.5.24)forotheroptionsonhowtoconfigureyour

backup system. (Other options include synchronous/asynchronous

modes, crossloading, and equivalence checking.)

If your system is properly configured, the QUAL LED on both backup

cartridges should be yellow. Your backup system is ready.

Verify the Backup System

To verify your system:

1. Place the odd node keyswitch in Run mode.

ThePrimaryLEDonthe1785-CHBMcartridgeshouldturnsolidgreen.

2. Place the even node keyswitch in Run mode.

The QUAL LED on both 1785-CHBM cartridges should turn solid

green. The Secondary LED on the even node should be solid yellow.

You now have a running ControlNet Hot Backup system.
