Rockwell Automation 1336-GM6 Enhanced DeviceNet Communications Module - Manual (Page 15)

Overview 1-3
• Peer I/O capabilities let the drive’s I/O (logic command,
reference, logic status, feedback and datalinks) be broadcast to or
received from other drives connected via 1203-GU6 or
1336-GM6 adapters.
• Software configuration lets you configure the adapter using
RSNetWorx for DeviceNet or HyperTerminal (a standard
Windows 95 program).
• Faulted Node Recovery lets you change items, such as a node
address, of a device even when it is faulted on the network. (This
feature requires the support of proper PC software tools.)
• User-configurable fault response provides the ability to customize
the adapter’s actions to communication errors.
• A miniature RS-232 port on the front of the 1203-GU6 (not
available on the 1336-GM6) provides access for your PC to
change parameters in the module using HyperTerminal. It also
provides a DF1 connection for DriveTools32. (You must
configure DriveTools32 and RSLinx for DF1 communications
and then connect to the module using a 1203-SFC cable [sold
separately].)
• A new Module Status LED helps to diagnose network, module,
and SCANport product health.
• Re-designed power supply receives its operating power from the
connected drive product. Only minimal DeviceNet-side
transceiver power is consumed by the user-supplied 24V DC
power source.
