20–8 Terminal and Communication Setup
Publication 2711-6.0
4. Under Terminal, edit the following parameters.
Use: To:
Node Address
Specify the node address (0 to 254 decimal) of
the terminal for DF1 network communications. For
network communications, click the Use
Networking check box.
For point–to–point communications with an SLC,
PLC, MicroLogix 1000 or 1761–NET DNI module,
the default node address of 64 is used.
Baud Rate
Select the baud rate of the terminal on the DF1
link. The baud rate must match the baud rate of
the target device.
Valid baud rates are: 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600,
19200. The default is 9600.
Parity/Stop Bits
Select the parity and number of stop bits used by
the DF1 port on the terminal. The number of data
bits is always 8. Your selection must match the
settings of the target device.
PLC controllers allow a parity of Even or None.
For SLC controllers the parity is fixed at None.
Error Detect
Select the type of error detection performed on
data. The options are CRC (Cyclic Redundancy
Check) and BCC (Block Check Character). The
default is CRC.
Handshake
Specify whether handshaking is used by the DF1
port. The default is Off or no handshaking.
If handshaking is On, the CTS and RTS lines are
enabled.
5. Under Network Nodes, edit the node parameters of the controller.
To insert a network node, right–click in the Node Name field and
select Insert Node from the menu. Click in a field to edit it.
Use: To:
Node Name
Enter a unique name for the logic controller that
will communicate with the PanelView terminal on
the DF1 link.
Node Address
Select the node address (0 to 254 decimal) of the
controller on the DF1 link.
Node Type
Select the type of controller that will communicate
with the PanelView terminal.
To delete a node, right-click in a node field and select Delete
Node from the shortcut menu. From this menu, you can also sort
multiple nodes by name, address, type or only modified nodes.
To copy, rename or delete devices from a project, use the Project
Management command. See page 21–4
.
6. Click OK to exit and return to the Terminal Setup dialog.
