Frequently asked questions

You can set the node address using the rotary switches, RSNetWorx for DeviceNet, DeviceNetManager, or another software configuration tool. The module ships with the default address set to 63. To change the address, rotate the switches using a small blade screwdriver and align the black dot on the switch with the desired number. Cycle power to apply the new setting.

The module supports cyclic, polled and change-of-state communication modes. Cyclic allows for configuration of the block as an I/O client, allowing it to produce and consume I/O cyclically at the configured rate. Polled communication involves the master initiating communication by sending a message to the module, which then consumes the message, updates its outputs, and produces a response with input data. Change-of-state communication occurs when an input changes or a fault condition occurs. This allows for efficient communication by only updating the master when necessary.

This module meets IP65/66/67/69K (when marked) and NEMA 4X/6P with receptacle dust caps or cable termination. It is designed for use in demanding industrial environments.
