Programming Over the
DeviceNet Network The DNI provides the ability to upload, download, or monitor the
ladder logic program of controllers connected to a DNI on the
network.
Computer with DNI
Follow these steps to upload, download, or monitor over the network.
1. Connect a commissioned DNI to the RS-232 port on a computer
(as shown under Local Access to a DeviceNet Network on page
21).
2. Set the communications in the configuration software to DF1 full
duplex.
3. Select the DeviceNet address of the destination DNI. You can
now upload/download/monitor over the network. The
functionality over the network is determined by the destination
device.
IMPORTANT
Configuring the baud rate is needed only when
DeviceNet Autobaud is disabled. The default
(out-of-box) setting for DeviceNet Autobaud is
“enabled”.
IMPORTANT
The new baud rate takes effect on power cycle or
when DNI is reset. Use caution when changing the
baud rate on an active network.
EXAMPLE
If the destination device is a MicroLogix 1000
controller, you cannot perform on-line editing. If the
destination device is an SLC 5/03 or later or PLC, you
can edit on-line.
IMPORTANT
With a computer connected to a DNI, you cannot
configure devices on the DeviceNet network. You
cannot use the DNI as a replacement for a 1770-KFD.
