DeviceNet Node

Commissioning

Establishing a DeviceNet Node Address

The ArmorStart is shipped with a default node address of 63 and Autobaud
enabled. Each device on a DeviceNet network must have a unique node
address or MAC ID which can be set to a value from 0…63. Keep in mind
that most DeviceNet systems use address 0 for the master device (Scanner)
and node address 63 should be left vacant for introduction of new slave
devices. The ArmorStart offers two methods for node commissioning as
shown in the following pages.

Node Commissioning using Software

To set the node address of the ArmorStart using software or other handheld
tools, leave the hardware rotary switches in their default position (99) or
insure that they are set to something greater then (63). With the hardware
switches set, use the software or handheld tool to change the address.

When using software to node commission a device, it may be necessary to
have the EDS file stored on the computer. The EDS file defines how the
software such as RSNetWorx for DeviceNet will communicate to the
ArmorStart. You must use RSNetWorx for DeviceNet Revision 3.21
Service Pack 2 or later.
