ArmorBlock MaXum 8 Input Module with 8 Connectors, Series B 3

Publication 1792D-IN051A-EN-P - February 2001

Install Your ArmorBlock MaXum I/O Module

To install module:

Set the node address

Mount the module to the cable base

Connect the cord sets

Communicate with the module

Set the Node Address

Valid node addresses are 00 to 63.

Set the node address using the rotary switches, RSNetWorx for
DeviceNet

, DeviceNetManager

, or other software configuration

tool. Setting the switches between 64 to 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)

To reset the node address, use a small blade screwdriver to rotate the
switches. Line up the small black dot on the switch with the number
setting you wish to use.

The rotary switches are read at module power up only. Settings
between 64 and 99 cause the module to use the last valid node
address stored internally. Example: The last setting was 40. If a
change is made to 68, and then you power up, the address will
default to 40.
