Figure 1-1. NI-DNET Cards Listed in MAX
Note
Each card’s name uses the word CAN, because the Controller Area Network is the
communication protocol upon which DeviceNet is built.
If your NI DeviceNet hardware is not listed here, MAX is not configured
to search for new devices on startup. To search for the new hardware,
press <F5>.
To verify installation of your DeviceNet hardware, right-click the
DeviceNet card, then select Self-test. If the self-test passes, the card icon
shows a checkmark. If the self-test fails, the card icon shows an X mark, and
the Test Status in the right pane describes the problem. Refer to
Appendix C,
Troubleshooting and Common Questions
, for information
about resolving hardware installation problems.
