RSNetWorx Software as a
Configuration Tool
RSNetWorx for DeviceNet software is used to configure the 1747-SDN
module’s data tables. This software tool connects to the 1747-SDN
module over the DeviceNet network via a computer RS-232 interface
(1770-KFD module) or PC Card (1784-PCD, 1784-PCID, or
1784-PCIDS).
The configuration dialog map below shows the RSNetWorx for
DeviceNet dialogs used to configure the 1747-SDN module and the
navigation paths between them.
The use of these dialogs is described in Chapter 4.
