Applying Power

Step 1. Apply power to the network.

Step 2. Apply power to the VSM500 unit. The DeviceNet option board receives its

power from the VSM500 unit and from the network. When you apply power to
the option board for the first time, the COMM status indicator flashes green
for 1/4 second, red for 1/4 second, and then turns off while the option board
finishes its initialization. If it stays red, there is a problem. Refer to chapter 7
for troubleshooting information.

Step 3. Verify that the option board is set for the correct data rate and has a unique

node address. If a new data rate or address is needed, reconfigure the option
board switches (see section 2.5). If switches 7 and 8 are On, create a
point-to-point connection to the option board with a configuration tool to set
its data rate and node address parameters (see chapter 3).

Step 4. Apply power to the master device (scanner) and other network devices.
