Configuring the
DeviceNet Module
Chapter 4 provides instructions and information for setting the
parameters in the DeviceNet module.
For a list of parameters, refer to Appendix B, DeviceNet Module
Parameters. For definitions of terms in this chapter, refer to the
Glossary.
4.1 Configuration Tools
The DeviceNet module stores parameters and other information in
its own non-volatile memory. Therefore, you must access the
module to view and edit its parameters. Table 4.1 lists the tools that
can be used to access the module parameters.
RSNetWorx for DeviceNet (version 4.018) and RSLinx (version
2.40) were used for examples in this manual. Different versions of
software may differ in appearance and procedures.
Note that explicit messaging can also be used to configure a
DeviceNet module and drive. Refer to Chapter 7, Using Explicit
Messaging.
