Preface
Configure the network Completing tasks associated with configuring the DeviceNet network with RSNetWorx

for DeviceNet software,
such as setting the node address for the DeviceNet scanner module your controller uses to access the DeviceNet
network.
This quick start uses a CompactLogix 5370 L3 controller with a 1769-SDN scanner module, and the tasks
described in
Chapter 2 and Chapter 3 are done so with that controller and scanner module. We recommend that
you use those components and corresponding software files with this quick start.
If you use a different Logix5000 controller and DeviceNet scanner module and corresponding DeviceNet network
software files, you can complete the tasks in
Chapter 2 and Chapter 3 but you must account for any software
differences.
Create an
RSLogix 5000 project Creating a project used with your Logix5000 controller that includes all required control system components.
Your project must include the DeviceNet scanner module used by your controller to access the DeviceNet
network.

IMPORTANT: For more information on how to create an RSLogix 5000 project that can be associated with your
DeviceNet configuration file, see
