DeviceNet Adapter for use with DPI AC Drives

Understanding the I/O Image

The DeviceNet specification requires that the terms input and
output be defined from scanner’s point of view.

Output I/O is data that is output from the scanner and consumed by
the DeviceNet adapter.

Input I/O is status data that is produced by the adapter and
consumed as input by the scanner. The I/O image table will vary
based on the following:

• Size (either 16-bit or 32-bit) of the Reference/Feedback word and

Datalink words used by the drive.

• Configuration of DPI I/O Config (13) in the adapter. If all I/O is not

enabled, the image table is truncated. The image table always
uses consecutive words starting at word 0.

Figure 6.1 illustrates an example of an I/O image with 16-bit words.
