ControlNet Overview
The ControlNet network provides high-speed transmission of time-critical I/O
and interlocking data and messaging data. This data transfer capability enhances
I/O performance and peer-to-peer communication in any system or application.
The ControlNet network is highly deterministic and repeatable and remains
unaffected as devices are connected or disconnected from it. This ensures
dependable, synchronized, and coordinated real-time performance.
The ControlNet network is most often used in these ways:
•
•
As the default network for the ControlLogix platform
•
As a backbone to multiple distributed DeviceNet networks
As a peer interlocking network
This chapter describes how you can use ControlNet modules in a network
control system.

Figure 1 on page 10 shows the following:
•
•
The controllers produce and consume tags among themselves.
The controllers initiate MSG instructions that send/receive data or
•
configure devices.
•
The computer uploads and downloads projects to the controllers.
The computer configures devices on the ControlNet network and
configures the network itself.
