Enhanced DeviceNet Adapter’s Parameters

Enabling the Adapter to Receive Peer I/O

To have your Enhanced DeviceNet adapter receive input data from
another Enhanced DeviceNet adapter on the network, you must
configure it for peer-to-peer communications.

Figure B.3

Receiving I/O from a Peer Device

In Peer-to-Peer communications, you can receive 2 or 4 I/O words
from another adapter. Follow these directions:

1. Enable the desired I/O and datalinks within the adapter and

SCANport product. Refer to the Using Datalinks and Command
I/O section in this chapter.

2. Ensure the Peer Inp Enable (36) parameter is Off.

3. Set the Peer Node to Inp (34) parameter to the number of the node

from which you want to receive data.

4. Set the Peer A Input (29) parameter to a destination for the first 2

words of data.

5. If using 4 words of input, set the Peer B Input (30) parameter to a

destination for the second two words of data.

6. If receiving Cmd/Ref input data, set the bits in the Peer Cmd

Mask (31) parameter according to the following table.

Important: If both Master-Slave data and Peer data are being used to
control the adapter, make sure you know which one is transmitting
which control bits. The adapter will receive each control bit from only
one source. This includes the stop bit.
