Configuring the 1769-ADN DeviceNet Adapter
Start RSNetworx for DeviceNet.
At this point, you could configure your network devices offline and
download these configuration files to the network devices. Instead,
we will go online to configure our network. Refer to chapter 3 for
information on configuring your DeviceNet system offline.
The advantage to configuring your system online is that the
RSNetworx software can upload the keys of the actual devices present
in the Compact I/O system - its I/O modules, power supplies,
inter-rack cables, and end cap - to use for adapter configuration.
All you’ll need to do is configure the individual I/O modules.
From the Network pull-down menu, choose Online or click on the
online icon in the toolbar. You’ll see a Browse Network screen where
you must select your communication path previously configured in
RSLinx for going online with your DeviceNet network.
For this example, we’re using a notebook computer with a 1784-PCD
card. Click on the 1784-PCD and choose OK to the subsequent
warning message.
