Configuring a Scanner to Communicate with the 1203-GK5 Module or 1336-GM5 Board

Configuring a PLC Scanner
(1771-SDN) to Communicate with a
1203-GK5 Module or 1336-GM5
Board

The following instructions describe how to configure a PLC scanner
on a DeviceNet network.

Important: If you are using an SLC scanner (1747-SDN), refer to
“Configuring an SLC Scanner (1747-SDN) to Communicate with a
1203-GK5 Module or 1336-GM5 Board” on page 4-13.

For the scanner to communicate with a product connected to the
network with a 1203-GK5 module or 1336-GM5 board, the scanner
must be properly configured and the product node number must be
added to its scan list.

Important: In case you need to revert to the current mapping, you
may want to retrieve and save existing mappings in the scanner to a
file before adding the module to the scanner mapping.

To configure the PLC scanner to communicate with a 1203-GK5
module or 1336-GM5 board, follow these instructions:

1. Select Who > Network Who to display the Network Who

screen. DeviceNet Manager immediately scans for devices on the
network.

Important: To stop the scan, click Stop. You can click Stop at any
time.

2. Double-click the scanner icon to display the 1771-SDN Module

and Channel Configuration dialog box.
