DeviceNet to SCANport Communication Module with Digital Inputs Parameters B-5
Using Master-Slave
Communications To have your DeviceNet to SCANport Communication Module with
Digital Inputs receive its I/O from a scanner (PLC or SLC) on the
DeviceNet network, you must configure it for Master-Slave
communications.
Figure B.2
Master-Slave Communications
Master-Slave communications let you transmit 2 – 10 words of I/O
data between the adapter and the scanner.
How you configure your adapter and scanner depends on the type of
allocation you are using. The adapter supports the following:
• Polled.
• COS (Change of State).
• Cyclic.
• Polled and COS.
• Polled and Cyclic.
Polled Allocation
In polling, the scanner sends control data to the adapter, and then the
adapter responds with its status data. To use polling, you must enable
polling in the adapter and in the scanner.
