Configuring the ControlNet Module

4-5

The module is ready to receive I/O from the master (i.e., scanner).
You must now configure the scanner to recognize and transmit I/O
to the module. Refer to chapter 5, RSNetWorx Configuration for
PLC-5C Applications.

4.6

Selecting Reference Adjust

Reference Adjust is the percent scaling factor for the Reference
from the Network and can be set from 0-200%. This allows the
drive’s Reference to either match the network Reference (=100%),
scale below the network Reference (<100%), or scale above the
network Reference (>100%).

4.7

Setting a Fault Action

By default, when communications are disrupted (for example, a
cable is disconnected) or the master is idle, the drive responds by
faulting if it is using I/O from the network.

You can configure a different response to communication
disruptions using Comm Flt Action (10) and a different response to
an idle scanner using Idle Flt Action (11).

!

ATTENTION: Comm Flt Action (10) and Idle Flt
Action (11) let you determine the action of the module
and connected Host product if the controller is idle
(for example, in program mode). These parameters
can be used to fault the Host product (default) or
perform another function such as allow the Host to
continue to run. Some ControlNet scanners may
operate differently when a controller is idle, which
could limit the Idle Fault Action’s operating states.
The Idle Flt Action should be verified when
commissioning the drive on the network by testing
the operation with the controller in idle.
