Configuring the Scanner
A scanner is a separate module of a multi-module controller or a
built-in component of a single-module controller that provides
communication with a module connected to a network.
Chapter 5 provides instructions on how to configure a scanner to
communicate with the DeviceNet module and the connected MD65
drive.
5.1 Configuring a Simple Network:
An Example
After the module is configured, the connected drive and module will
be a single node on the network. This chapter provides the steps
that are needed to configure a simple network like the network
shown in figure 5.1. In our example, we will configure the drive for
using Logic Command/Status and Reference Feedback over the
network.
