Testing
IntelliCENTER technology can save you time because each MCC is pre-wired and the network is pre-programmed and
validated at the factory. Network devices are pre-configured with node addresses and communication rates, ready to
communicate so you can configure device parameters (for example, acceleration time and full load amps) via the network.
For more information on MCCs with DeviceNet, refer to CENTERLINE Motor Control Centers with DeviceNet, publication
2100-TD019
.
IntelliCENTER Database
The IntelliCENTER database contains all of your order-specific information. One IntelliCENTER database is needed for each
MCC lineup or for individual units (when the unit is purchased separately). The database is installed on the computer or
computers running the IntelliCENTER software. The database CD includes the IntelliCENTER data files, all of the electronic
documentation, all the up-to-date EDS files for the DeviceNet devices and the DeviceNet configuration file as recorded
during the final system test of the MCC. The EDS and configuration files are very useful for programming the control
system, allowing the programmer to complete the project before the equipment is even energized. Additionally, when
used with RSLogix 5000 and RSNetworx for DeviceNet software, the programmer can use the DeviceNet Tag Generator
utility in RSLogix 5000 to instantly generate descriptive tags for every device in the MCC.
