For CIP Sync time coordination to work in motion control, you must set the
Time Sync Connection to Time Sync and Motion on all 1756-ENxTx

control on the EtherNet/IP network.
The Time Sync and Motion selection is available only for firmware version
3.0 and later. You must be offline to change the Time Sync and Motion
selection.
If you are online at a major revision of 1 or 2, you can only change the
revision to a 1 or 2. You must go offline to change the module to revision 3
or 4 and return to revision 1 or 2.
