Configure a ControlNet Module 

Chapter 3

 

Schedule the Network Online

 

Prior to scheduling a network online, make sure that all keepers are unconfigured 

or do not conflict with the current network. If your network has already been 

scheduled and you made a change to it, you must reschedule it.

 

Refer to 

Reschedule a ControlNet Network that has Previously been Scheduled 

on 

page 53 

for more information.

 

To schedule a network online, follow this procedure in RSNetWorx for 

ControlNet software.

 

1.

From the File menu, choose New.

 

2.

From the New File dialog box, select a ControlNet configuration for the

new file and click OK.

3.

From the Network menu, choose Online.
