Communicating with an SLC 5/03 Processor on a DeviceNet Network using Explicit Messaging

Publication 2755-6.8

Notes on using Explicit Messaging

You can send messages sequentially from the SLC 5/03 to
different bar code readers, but the response will not update
properly (when the response is read in N25:0).

The TXID byte does not need to be incremented, although you
may not know where the response came from.

To receive the correct response from the command sent from the
SLC 5/03 you must:

1. Send command down, matchcode download (TXID=11).

2. Send a 03 in the status command. Refer to page 10–26 for

more information.

3. Increment TXID to 12.

4. Send command down, turn on LED 1 (TXID=12).

5. View N25:0 for response to step 4.

6. Confirm that TXID=12. If your response is 90, the command

was sent correctly. If you receive a 94, the was not sent
correctly.

If an incorrectly formatted command is sent from the SLC 5/03,
you must send a 03 in the status command byte in order for the
system to operate properly.

When sending a 03 in the status command byte, the SDN card
will produce an error until the next command is sent.
