Configure the Terminal as a Scanner 69

Use RSLogix 5000 Software

During the first part of the example configuration in Chapter 2:

• you added the 1756-DNB I/O configuration to the 1756-L63

controller tags database using RSLogix 5000 software.

• you then set the run bit Local:2:O.CommandRegister.Run in the

output command register

You did this to enable communications between the PanelView
Plus and the 1756-DNB DeviceNet module.

In the Configure RSNetWorx for DeviceNet software section of this
chapter, you put the processor in Program mode to clear the
Command Register run bit. Because the 1756-DNB was in Idle mode,
you were able to download the scanlist to the 1756-DNB module. You
can now put 1756-DNB module in Run mode. In the 1756-DNB
command register set the run bit Local:2:O.CommandRegister.Run.

Summary

The PanelView Plus is now ready to operate as a scanner on the
DeviceNet network. The terminal can scan the configured slave I/O
data from the 1756-DNB module.
