3.1: Establishing DeviceNet

Communications

NOTE: This manual assumes that the network is

configured in accordance with the DeviceNet wiring

specification.

1. Remove the DeviceNet Resolver from the box

and connect your DeviceNet cable to the 5-pin

mini connector on the back of the resolver

according to the DeviceNet wiring specifications.

2. Make sure that there is power on the DeviceNet

network when you connect the DeviceNet

Resolver to the network.

3. The DeviceNet Resolver will undergo an

initialization sequence, flashing the network

status LED. The LED will first turn green then red

and then flash green. At this point, the DeviceNet

Resolver has passed its duplicate MAC ID test

and is ready to be allocated by a master.

4. If the network status LED stays solid red, remove

the DeviceNet Resolver from the network and

then reconnect. If the LED is still solid red, then

go to section 3.2: Configure the Node Address

and Baud Rate.

3.2: Configure the Node

Address and Baud Rate

1. When the network status is flashing green you

may change the device node address (MAC ID)

and the baud rate using any DeviceNet software

configuration tool. Defaults are node address 63

and 125K baud.

2. If you change the node address, the DeviceNet

Resolver will undergo the initialization sequence

and assume the new node address.

3. If you change the baud rate, the new baud

rate will not take effect until power is cycled to

the DeviceNet Resolver and the initialization

sequence occurs.

4. Confirm the new node address and baud rate are

set correctly by using the software configuration

tool to scan the network for the DeviceNet

Resolver.

3.3: Parameter Configuration

After the baud rate and node address have been

established, the device parameters are ready to be

configured. The parameters must be configured in

the following sequence:

3.3.1: Scale Factor

The scale factor range is from 2 to 4096. The scale

factor can not exceed 4096. The scale factor is

configured through the Parameter Object. The

default scale factor is 4096.

NOTE: Changing the scale factor will result in

clearing the position offset and resetting all of the

setpoint values to zero. Therefore, the scale factor

should be set prior to configuring any setpoints or

position offset.

Set Parameter Instance 2 Attribute ID 1 Desired

Value. Desired Value = 2 to 4096.

3.3.2: Counting Direction

The DeviceNet Resolver can be configured to count

(increment) in either direction. The default direction

is clockwise.

Set Parameter Instance 3 Attribute ID 1 Desired

Value. Desired Value = 0 for clockwise, 1 for

counter clockwise.
