About This Chapter

Read this chapter for information about how the 1734-SSI module transmits SSI 
sensor data over the DeviceNet network.

About Communications

Data can be exchanged with the master through a polled, cyclic, or change-of-
state connection. Bit-strobe Command Response Messaging and the 
Unconnected Message Manager (UCMM) are not supported.

(1)

The module produces and consumes data as follows:

See the following tables for consume and produced bit and byte definitions.

(1) If you are not familiar with these terms, see the DeviceNet Specification for definitions (online: www.odva.org).
