Install Your ArmorBlock MaXum I/O Module
To install the ArmorBlock MaXum module:
• Set the node address
• Mount the module to the cable base
• Connect the cord sets
• Communicate with the module
Each of these steps is explained in the following procedures.
Set the Node Address
Valid node addresses are 00 through 63.
Set the node address using the rotary switches, RSNetWorx for
DeviceNet, DeviceNetManager, or another software configuration
tools. Setting the switches to a number from 64 through 99 lets the
software have address control.
Each module is shipped set for node address 63. The switches are
located on the underside of the module. The two switches are:
• MSD (most significant digit)
• LSD (least significant digit)
