B-8 Configure Peer-to-Peer DeviceNet Communications

3. RSLogix Guard PLUS! automatically generates a Target

Connections file within its project folder. When you use the
Automatically Update Signals option in RSNetWorx for
DeviceNet, that software automatically imports any updates
when the scanner's property page is displayed. You can also
manually export the Target Connections file to a specific
location at any time by right-clicking on the HSP Protocol and
selecting Export Target Connections.

Configure Peer-to-Peer
Connections

You must associate target scanners with their GuardPLC controller
before you can configure the peer-to-peer standard and safety
connections.

Associate the Peer Safety Scanner and GuardPLC Controller

Follow the procedure in Chapter 7 to associate the peer safety scanner
to its GuardPLC controller and configure the peer scanner’s GuardPLC
connection.

View the application signals imported via the association by clicking
on the View Target Connections… button on the GuardPLC tab in
RSNetWorx for DeviceNet. The signals should match the definitions
made in RSLogix Guard PLUS!.
