Configure the DeviceNet Scanner Subnet
This chapter describes how to custom configure your scanner for use
with ArmorPoint I/O modules.
Your adapter works on two networks simultaneously and must be
configured for each separately. This chapter explains configuration of
the scanner for use with ArmorPoint I/O modules.
For information on how to configure the adapter for use on the
DeviceNet Network see Chapter 5, Adding the DeviceNet adapters to
the DeviceNet Scanner’s Scanlist.
Configuration Overview You must use the RSNetWorx for DeviceNet software to configure
your scanner. You can configure the scanner while it is:
• on line
• off line
This chapter shows configuration in the offline mode. Configuration
screens appear the same in both modes. Note that some screen
options are unavailable in offline mode. The only difference is that if
you make changes off line, you must take the scanner on line before
the configuration changes take effect.

IMPORTANT
Throughout most of this manual, we refer to the
ArmorPoint I/O DeviceNet adapter as the adapter.
The adapter also communicates with Subnet
modules as a scanner. In this chapter only, the
adapter is referred to as a scanner.
