a. Edit the following.
b. Set the PLC-5 addresses that correspond to an existing RSLogix 5
project or will be used for a new project.
If an address file exists from a previous network configuration,
click Import… to import those addresses into the RSNetWorx for
DeviceNet project. For a new application where addresses do not
exist, click PLC Interface Addresses… to display the PLC
Interface Addresses screen. We recommend using the default
addresses shown on this screen. However, if a different address is
required, click the
button to edit the address.
After the addresses match your project requirements, they can be
saved for future use by clicking Export… and selecting a desired
location.
c. Click Apply to set the PLC-5 controller addresses.
11. Click the Scanlist tab to begin the drive I/O configuration.

Box Setting
Channel Selects the scanner channel to which the DeviceNet network is
connected. For this example, Channel A is selected.
Interscan
Delay
Sets the scanner time delay between consecutive I/O scans on the
network. For this example, we recommend using the default setting of
10 milliseconds.
Foreground… Sets the ratio of foreground to background polls. For this example, we
recommend using the default setting of 1.
Rack Sets the rack location in which the scanner is installed. For this
example, Rack 0 is selected.
Group Sets the group location in which the scanner is installed. For this
example, Group 0 is selected.
TIP: The Automap on Add box is checked by default and allows
RSNetWorx for DeviceNet software to automatically map the drive I/O
into the scanner in the next available registers. The mapping is based on
the minimum I/O requirements (4 bytes for input and 4 bytes for output)
that the scanner obtains from the drive EDS file.
