Install Your ArmorBlock

I/O Module

To install the module:

• Set the node address
• Mount the module
• Connect the cord sets
• Attach the network cables
• Communicate with the module

Set the Node Address

Valid node addresses are 00 through 63.

Set the node address using either the rotary switches, RSNetWorx for
DeviceNet, DeviceNetManager, or another software configuration
tool. Setting the switches at any number from 64 to 99 lets the
software have address control.

Each module is shipped set for node address 63. Remove the caps on
the front of the module to access the switches. The two switches are:

• X10 (most significant digit) - left side of module
• X1 (least significant digit) - right side of module

To reset the node address, use a small blade screwdriver to rotate the
switches. Line up the small black dot on the switch with the number
setting you wish to use and then cycle power.
