Add the ArmorPoint DeviceNet Adapter to the
DeviceNet Scanner’s Scanlist

This chapter describes how to custom configure your adapter for use
with DeviceNet devices.

Your adapter works on two networks simultaneously and must be
configured for each separately, which means that you will have two
separate RSNetWorx for DeviceNet software files.

This chapter explains configuration of the adapter for use on the
primary DeviceNet network. For information on how to configure the
adapter for use on the Subnet, see Chapter 4, Configure the DeviceNet
Scanner Subnet.

Configuration Overview

You must use the RSNetWorx for DeviceNet software to configure
your adapter. You can configure the adapter 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 adapter on line before
the configuration changes take effect.
