Box Setting
Interscan Delay Sets the scanner time delay between consecutive I/O scans on the
network. For this example, we recommend using the default setting
of 10 milliseconds.
Foreground… Sets the ratio of foreground to background polls. For this example,
we recommend using the default setting of 1.
Slot Sets the slot location in which the scanner is installed. For this
example, Slot 0 is selected.
TIP: The Automap on Add box is checked by default and allows
RSNetWorx for DeviceNet software to automatically map the drive I/O
into the scanner in the next available registers. The mapping is based on
the minimum I/O requirements (4 bytes for input and 4 bytes for output)
that the scanner obtains from the drive EDS file.
Box Setting
Node Active Activates/deactivates the scanlist in the 1747-SDN scanner for the
selected device. For this example, keep the box checked.
Device Type These Electronic Key category check boxes select how specific the
device in the scanlist must be for the 1747-SDN scanner to match
its compatibility for I/O operation. The more boxes that are checked,
the more specific the device must be to operate. For this example,
keep the default boxes (Device Type, Vendor, and Product Code)
checked.
