Normalization source for neural network during application (not training)

I've built and trained a neural net using z-score normalization of the input parameters. When I now go to apply that network I again apply z-score normalization, but i'm unsure what source to normalize with....the mean and standard deviation of the training data, or the mean and standard deviation of the new data? It seems like a simple question, but I couldn't find a clear answer.

A basic assumption is that the design (training and validation) data adequately characterize the summary stationary statistics (e.g., means, variances, maxes, mins and correlations) of all nontraining data (validation, testing and unseen).
The defaults of random datadivision and validation stopping are included to help prevent poor performance on nontraining data.
Now, if new data is encountered whos summary stats vary significantly from the design data, then
a. It could be included in a new design
b. It could be used to obtain an alternate design.
Hope this helps.
Thankyou for formally accepting my answer

P.S. Don' forget that plotting is a very effective way to recognize nonstationary and incompatible statistics.
