Configuring the 1769-IR6 Module in a Remote
DeviceNet System with a 1769-ADN
DeviceNet Adapter
This application example assumes your 1769-IR6 RTD/resistance input
module is in a remote DeviceNet system controlled by a 1769-ADN
DeviceNet adapter. RSNetworx for DeviceNet is not only used to configure
your DeviceNet network, but is also used to configure individual I/O modules
in remote DeviceNet adapter systems.
For additional information on configuring your DeviceNet scanners and
adapters, please refer to the documentation for these products. This includes
the Compact I/O 1769-ADN DeviceNet Adapter user manual, publication
1769-UM001 . The adapter manual also contains examples on how to modify
I/O module configuration with Explicit Messages, while the system is running.
Whether you configure an I/O module offline, then download to the adapter
or you accomplish the configuration online, the 1769 RTD/resistance Input
module must be configured prior to configuring the DeviceNet adapter in the
DeviceNet scanner’s scanlist. The only ways to configure or re-configure I/O
modules after the adapter is placed in the scanners scanlist are via Explicit
Messages or by removing the adapter from the scanner’s scanlist, modifying
the configuration of the I/O module, then adding the adapter back into the
scanner’s scanlist.
This example takes you through configuring your 1769 RTD Input module
with RSNetWorx for DeviceNet, version 3.00 or later, prior to adding your
adapter to the scanlist of your DeviceNet scanner.
