DeviceNet 2 Scan Counter (word 17) – the scanner increments
a one-word counter whenever a scan of the DeviceNet 2 devices
is completed. The counter rolls over when it reaches its
maximum value.

Device Idle State Bitmap (words 18–25, 4 words for Channel 1,
four words for Channel 2) – the scanner assigns one bit to
consecutive Device Addresses. Devices on Channel 1 are
indicated by a single bit in consecutive order in words 18–21.
Devices on Channel 2 are indicated by the bits in words 22–25.
If a bit is set, it indicates that the scanner received a valid
DeviceNet idle indication from this node. A device in idle mode
does not return updated I/O data to the scanner because the
device is not in its run mode.

Node Address/Status Indicator (word 26) –- Channel 1 and
Channel 2 node address and scanner diagnostic information is
copied to the low and high bytes of Word 26, respectively.
The descriptions of these codes are listed on page 36.

25 words of pad data (zeroes, words 27–51), to complete the
table for a total of 52 words.

Configure Your Module for
the DeviceNet Network

To operate your 1771-SDN Scanner Module, you must configure the
two tables listed below, using RSNetworx for DeviceNet software. For
additional information, refer to your RSNetworx documentation or
online help and your 1771-SDN Scanner Configuration Manual
(publication number 1771-UM118C-EN-P).

Configure this table:

To:

Scanner Configuration Table

Control how the scanner gathers DeviceNet messages.
The information you configure for this table includes:
• frequency of background poll messages on each

DeviceNet channel

• DeviceNet port disable/enable

Scan List Table

Use the information gathered from the scan list table to
map the I/O data between the scanner’s I/O data table
and DeviceNet nodes. A device must have a
configuration table entry in the scanner’s database
before its I/O messages are mapped to the PLC. The
information you configure for this table includes:
• the size of data in each node’s DeviceNet messages

• location of a device’s data in the data tables that are

transferred to and from the PLC
