Overview
Introduction This chapter provides an overview of communication between the
CompactLogix and MicroLogix 1500 programmable controllers and
DeviceNet devices via the 1769-SDN scanner module.
The configuration data tables and the RSNetWorx for DeviceNet dialog boxes
used to configure the data tables are also described in this chapter. Before
configuring your scanner, you must understand these items:
• Data exchange between the programmable controller and DeviceNet
devices through the scanner
• User-configurable scanner module data tables
• Role of RSNetWorx for DeviceNet software
These topics are covered briefly in this chapter and in more detail throughout
the rest of the manual.
