SLC 500 Controller Example After the adapter is configured, the connected drive and adapter will be a
single node on the network. This section provides the steps needed to
configure a simple DeviceNet network (see
Figure 4.3 ). In our example, we
will configure a SLC 500 controller with 1747-SDN scanner to communicate
with a drive using Logic Command/Status, Reference/Feedback, and
Datalinks over the network.

Configuring Parameters for Network I/O
Because the I/O for the drive is defined in the next subsection Use
RSNetWorx for DeviceNet to Configure and Save the I/O to the
Controller on page 4-32
, there is no need to configure any I/O inside the
RSLogix 500 project, version 7.20 or later, until using the I/O as described
in
Chapter 5 .
However, to get the adapter to operate with the I/O created in Chapter 5 , you
need to configure the adapter to accept the I/O and the drive to point to the
appropriate Datalinks.
