Chapter 3 Connect Devices and Commission Nodes What This Chapter Contains Read this chapter to connect the devices for your Starter Kit and perform node commissioning on the devices. The following table describes what this chapter contains and where to find specific information.
3-2 Connect Devices and Commission Nodes The node commission process can be done via hardware (dip switches, rotary switches, thumbwheels) or software (RSNetWorx). Once you commission a device via hardware, you cannot overwrite the settings via software. Many devices support “autobaud”. This allows a device to “set itself” to the proper data rate when it is connected to an operational DeviceNet network. This shortens the steps you need to take when adding or replacing devices on your network.
Connect Devices and Commission Nodes 3-3 RSNetWorx Communicates via RSLinx RSNetWorx communicates to the network through RSLinx. RSNetWorx does not have to be online (connected to an operating network) to setup your network. You can setup your network offline and then download the device scanlist to your scanner. The nodes are not commissioned until you are online communicating to the network.

Chapter 4 Build the Scanlist What This Chapter Contains Read this chapter to configure the scanner by building the scanlist. The following table describes what this chapter contains and where to find specific information. To: Introduction See page: learn about scanlists 4-2 configure your scanner 4-3 map input devices 4-17 map output devices 4-22 With the Starter Kit, you are not required to create a scanlist and map the device input and outputs.
4-2 Build the Scanlist What is a Scanlist? Before a scanner can successfully communicate to the devices on a DeviceNet network, it must first be configured. There are module level parameters and also the scanlist. The scanlist contains all of the information to tell the scanner how to communicate to the devices.
Build the Scanlist Configure Your Scanner 4-3 For this example we are using SKIT1. If you do not know how to map the device inputs and outputs in relation to where your ladder logic wants to find the devices, simply use the .dnt files provided. We recommend using the provided files first. Get your network up and running and then go back to the file you created and practice mapping the inputs and outputs as outlined here. Here’s an overview of what you need to do to configure your scanner. 1.
4-4 Build the Scanlist You see: 4. Please wait while RSNetWorx is browsing your network. You see: 5. Double-click the scanner (node 00) on your DeviceNet network to display the Properties dialog box. (You can also right click on the device to bring up a menu and then choose Properties).
Build the Scanlist 4-5 You see: In Properties, you build the scanlist to include the devices that will be scanned on the network. 6. Click the Scanlist tab at the top of the screen. You see: 7. Click . This sends the scanlist from the provided .dnt file to the scanner. 8. Go to Chapter 5.
4-6 Build the Scanlist If You Want to Use the .dnt File You Created in Chapter 3 If want to create your own scanlist and map the inputs and outputs, you can either start from scratch by selecting File/New and going online to display your network or you can use the file you created in Chapter 3, follow these procedures: 1. In RSNetWorx, open the your .dnt file. If you are going to start from scratch (File/New), you would click to display your network. 2.
Build the Scanlist 4-7 3. Click the Scanlist tab at the top of the screen. You see: 4. Click . This sends the current information about your network from the scanner to the software.

When all devices are added to the scanlist you see: Notice the Electronic Key area of the window. When the Electronic Keys are checked, RSNetWorx will remember what version of the device you are adding to the scanlist as well as I/ O mapping. This is helpful when you need to be certain that a particular device release is used.
4-10 Build the Scanlist version. Your scanlist will error because the scanner will be looking for a different version of the device. 6. In the scanlist window, hold down the Shift Key and click on each device, selecting the whole list. 7. Click Device Type. The Electronic Key will deactivate for all devices. 8. Click . You see: 9.
