Configuring the Smart Trac
DeviceNet Card

Configuration

You configure the Smart Trac DeviceNet card by either accepting default values
or changing them to suit your unique situation. The values chosen at installation
of the Smart Trac DeviceNet driver must match those set on the card.

Default Settings

The Smart Trac DeviceNet card is shipped from the factory already configured
for the typical installation. The default values are:

Interrupt: "7" The physical IRQ implements up to 8 logical
interrupts, determined by the application program.

Base I/O Address (Switch SW1): 0x250 (positions 2 and 4 set to logic
"1", the other positions set to "0." Positions 1-6 of this switch determine
the base I/O address. This default setting causes the card to use the
eight I/O addresses 0x250 through 0x257.

Memory Address: 0xC8000.

Be sure to set each device's MAC ID correctly to avoid addressing conflicts.
Many simple devices are DIP switch configurable. However, more sophisticated
devices are configured online via the network. Such devices require a DeviceNet
management utility to be properly configured. It is recommended that you use
an ODVA-approved software package to configure your device.

Non-Default Settings

The interrupt may be set to either 5 or 7, with 7 the default and preferred as the
"standard" configuration for Smart Trac components. Using interrupt 7 assures
you that there will be no conflicts with other basic components. Interrupt 5
should be reserved for only unusual situations.
