1756-DNB DeviceNet Interface Module

The 1756-DNB:

• provides a communication bridge between ControlNet and DeviceNet

• utilizes the Rockwell 1756 form factor, which is native to ProcessLogix

• can be located in either the ProcessLogix Controller Rack or I/O Rack

• supports the three DeviceNet baud rates: 500 KBps, 250 KBps and

125KBps.

• is configured from a PC running the RSNetWorx for DeviceNet

configuration tool connected to either DeviceNet through a 1770-KFD
Interface Module or ControlNet through a CNB.

• input and output messages from/to the various DeviceNet devices are

bundled at the ControlNet level into 2 assemblies (data objects) which
are available for transport across ControlNet from/to the 1757-PLX52
Controller:

• as configured with the DeviceNet network configuration, all input

data messages (from DeviceNet input devices) are packed into a 496
byte input assembly. Input data is bound from input devices to the
1757-PLX52 Controller.

• as configured with the DeviceNet network configuration, all output

data messages (to DeviceNet output devices) are packed into a 492
byte output assembly. Output data is bound from the 1757-PLX52
Controller to the output device.

1757-ABRIO

The 1757-ABRIO allows Rockwell Automation controllers (ProcessLogix or
ControlLogix) to communicate with existing Allen-Bradley analog 1771-RIO.
The module acts as an Remote I/O scanner.
