Communication Mode
(optional) The SmartGuard controller can operate with or without DeviceNet
communication enabled. The default setting is enabled.
In Standalone mode, the cycle time of the controller is shorter, but none of the
DeviceNet communication functions can be used.
If you want to use the SmartGuard controller in Standalone mode, you can
disable DeviceNet communication and use the USB connection to configure the
module.
Follow these steps to disable DeviceNet communication.
1. Make sure you are connected to the programming device by using the USB
connection.
2. If you haven’t already, set up a path to use the USB connection in
RSNetWorx for DeviceNet software.
a. From the Network menu, choose Properties.
b. On the DeviceNet dialog box, click Set Online Path.
c. On the Browse for Network dialog box, select the desired path and
click OK.
3. In RSNetWorx for DeviceNet software, right-click the controller and
choose Properties.
Mode Description
Normal The controller starts in Idle mode when the power supply is turned on. You
must use RSNetWorx for DeviceNet software to change to Execute mode
by clicking Change Mode on the Mode/Cycle Time tab of the Controller
Properties dialog box.
Automatic Execution The controller starts in the Execute mode when the power supply is turned
on, if the configuration has been locked and the controller was in Execute
mode before the power supply was turned off.
IMPORTANT If you disable DeviceNet communication and you do not use the USB
connection, the configuration download will fail.
