In this example, the minimum interval is set to 2.00 seconds (Parameter
42 - [Peer Out Time]), and the maximum interval is set to 4.00 seconds
(2.00 x ‘2’ setting of Parameter 43 - [Peer Out Skip]).

5. Set Parameter 41 - [Peer Out Enable] to ‘1’ (On).

The adapter will transmit the data selected in Parameters 39 - [Peer A
Output]
and 40 - [Peer B Output] to the network. Another adapter
must be configured to receive the peer I/O data.

Setting the Adapter to Receive Peer-to-Peer Data

Important: The device receiving peer data must match the data sizes of the

sending device. For example, if the sending device uses a 16-bit
Reference, the receiving device must also use a 16-bit
Reference. Datalinks, if used, must also be the same size.

1. Verify that Parameter 37 - [Peer Inp Enable] is set to ‘0’ (Off).

This parameter must be Off while you configure the peer input
parameters.

2. Set Parameter 35 - [Peer Node to Inp] to the address of the node from

which you want to receive data.

Valid nodes must have 20-COMM-D adapters connected to drives with
compatible Logic Command/Status words.
