2-2 What is the 1734-ADN(X) Adapter?

Using the Adapter

The adapter resides on the primary DeviceNet network and the
Subnet simultaneously.

From this position, the adapter interfaces between DeviceNet devices
and POINT I/O modules. The graphic below shows the adapter on
the DeviceNet network and PointBus.

After you have installed your adapter into a POINT I/O system, you
must perform the following tasks:

1. Set Subnet/Backplane Baudrate

2. Set Subnet I/O Module Addresses

3. Configure the Subnet I/O

4. Configure the Primary DeviceNet Network

The steps mentioned above are explained briefly here and then in
greater detail throughout this manual. You must complete the steps for
the adapter to work with DeviceNet masters (e.g., 1756-DNB) on the
primary network and Subnet modules.

IMPORTANT

The PointBus maintains all DeviceNet network
protocol but also offers configuration capabilities.
