WARNING
Make sure that the power is turned OFF before installing/removing any boards
or connecting/disconnecting any cables. Installing/removing any boards or
connecting/disconnecting any cables with the power ON is extremely hazardous
and may result in electric shock and/or malfunction of equipment.
CAUTION
Pay attention to the followings in order to prevent the DeviceNet connecter from
coming off.
1. Use the connectors attached to the board.
2. Insert the connectors all the way seated.
3. Fix the cables at proper positions in order not to put a load on the
connectors.
2.1.1 How to Setup a DeviceNet Network
The following is a basic procedure for setting up a DeviceNet network:
1.
Choose node layout and pathway on your network.
For details, refer to
2.1.2 DeviceNet Network Construction
.
2.
Choose power supply method for communication.
For details, refer to
2.1.2 DeviceNet Network Construction
.
3.
Choose baud rate.
Choose the baud rate based on the network length. Select the fastest baud allowed for
the length. Increasing network load due to slow baud rate may cause trouble
including communication failure.
4.
Lay cables.
For details, refer to
2.1.2 DeviceNet Network Construction
.
5.
Configure the nodes.
For details, refer to respective manuals of your desired nodes.
6.
Turn ON the communications power supply and nodes.
Turn ON the communications power supply. After that (or simultaneously), turn ON
the nodes to supply power. When the power to the nodes is supplied earlier than the
power to the communication power supply, communication with the nodes may fail.
