4.2.1 Configuring Scheduled Data Transfers
Before the drive can communicate on the ControlNet network, you must configure its
scheduled traffic information by using some type of ControlNet configuration software.
By configuring scheduled traffic, you define how much data the drive will send, how
often the data is sent, and where the data is written to and read from (mapped) in the
programmable controller.
You must configure each drive on the ControlNet network. Table 4.2 lists the
configuration information you must enter.
