Browsing a DH-485 Network
Remotely

To improve performance when browsing a DH-485 network, configure the
DH-485 network properties in RSLinx software to display only those nodes
that actually exist on the network.

If you do not specify a specific range of addresses on the DH-485 network,
the RSWho function in RSLinx software attempts to locate a device at every
node address. Trying to locate devices that do not exist adds considerable
time to displaying the RSWho window for the network.

1. In RSLinx software, right-click on the DH-485 network you plan to browse and select Properties.

2. On the Browse Addresses tab, specify the lowest and highest addresses that exist on the DH-485 network.
