Configuring Safety Connections between a
GuardLogix Controller and POINT Guard I/O
Modules on a DeviceNet Network

To use POINT Guard I/O modules with a GuardLogix controller via a
DeviceNet network, you must use a 1734-PDN module in place of an adapter.
When using a 1734-PDN module, you must use RSNetWorx for DeviceNet
software to configure the POINT Guard I/O modules, and the Generic
DeviceNet Safety Module profile in the Logix Designer application to use the
module data inside of the safety task.

Configure the Module in
RSNetWorx for DeviceNet
Software

Before you can add the module to the GuardLogix controller project, you must
perform a number of tasks in RSNetWorx for DeviceNet software.

1. Set the node address of the module by using the Node Commissioning

Tool. See

Set the Node Address on page 106

.

2. Configure the module’s inputs and outputs. See the following sections:

Configure Digital Safety Inputs and Test Outputs on page 110

Configure Digital Safety Outputs on page 113

Configure Safety Analog Inputs on page 114
