Installing the Option Module

Setting the Node Address
Switches

Set the option module Node Address switches (bottom two switches in

Figure 1

)

by rotating the switches to the desired value for each digit.

Figure 1 - Setting the Node Address Switches

The switch settings can be verified by viewing

Device Parameter 08 - [Net Addr

Act]

or Diagnostic Device Item number 54 (

page 85

) with any of the following

drive configuration tools:

PowerFlex 20-HIM-A6 or 20-HIM-C6S HIM

Connected Components Workbench software, version 1.02 or later

DriveExplorer software, version 6.01 or later

DriveExecutive software, version 5.01 or later

IMPORTANT

Each node on the DeviceNet network must have a unique address. Set the node
address before power is applied because the option module uses the node
address it detects when it first receives power. To change a node address, you
must set the new value and then remove and reapply power to (or reset) the
option module, or disconnect and reconnect the DeviceNet network cable.

Settings

Description

0…63

Node address used by the option module if switches are enabled. The default switch setting is 63. Node
address 63 is also the default address used by all non-commissioned devices. We recommend that you do
not use this address as the final option module address.

Important: If the Data Rate switch (

Figure 2

) is set to position ‘3’, the option module uses the value

stored in Device Parameter 07 - [Net Addr Cfg] for the node address. The default setting for Device
Parameter 07 - [Net Addr Cfg] is 63. See

Setting the Node Address on page 26

.

64…99

Do not use. The option module will not recognize these addresses.
