RSNetWorx for DeviceNet Starter Kit Demonstration 5-3
Run the Demonstration Follow these steps to run the demonstration:
1. Follow instructions in Chapters 1-4.
At this point you should have your Starter Kit assembled,
powered, commissioned, and configured. RSLinx should be
minimized with your scanner, interface and all nodes listed
without errors.
2. Locate the floppy disk that came with your Starter Kit.
3. Open your ladder logic programming tool, i.e. RSLogix 500.
You can communicate between your PC and network with
RSLogix programming software via any of these mechanisms:
•
Serially, to channel 0 of the PLC/SLC
•
DH+ (PLC-5 & SLC-5/04)
•
DH 485 (SLC-5/02, 5/03)
•
Ethernet (PLC-5E, SLC 5/05)
4. ControlNet (PLC-5C, SLC 5/02, 5/03, 5/04, 5/05 w/1747-KFC)
5. Place the processor in program mode.
6. Open the ladder logic file (.rss, .rsp, or .acd) for your Starter Kit.
7. Go online and download the ladder logic program to your
processor.
8. Place the scanner in run mode.
9. Experiment with the devices.
a. Place your hand in front of the RightSight Photoelectric
Sensor. The green ControlTower Stack Light illuminates. View
the data mapping tables and monitor your inputs and outputs.
b. Place the Standard Proximity Switch flush against a metal
object. The red ControlTower Stack Light illuminates. View
the data mapping tables and monitor your inputs and outputs.
c. Place a metal object flush against the Inductive Proximity
Switch. The low byte of the CompactBlock I/O output LEDs
illuminate. Slowly move the metal object away from the
switch. Notice that the LEDs change depending on the
distance between the switch and the metal object. This is an
analog signal that allows the device to communicate distance.

outputs.
