Install Your ArmorBlock MaXum I/O Module

To install the module you must:

• Set the node address

• Mount the module to the cable base

• Connect the input/output cord sets to the MaXum module

• Communicate with your ArmorBlock MaXum I/O 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, 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)
