Setting the DeviceNet Configuration with BWConfig
The DeviceNet network configuration pane in BWConfig contains the parameters
used to control the behavior of the DeviceNet network interface. The parameters
are described in Table 3-2 below. Refer to Figure 3-1 to see how each parameter is
displayed on the user interface.

The Anybus-X will automatically reset after the DeviceNet configuration is
downloaded from BWConfig.

Swap I/O Bytes
Enable or disable I/O data byte swapping.
This option will swap bytes in the I/O tables
on 16-bit boundaries. This is helpful when
using Modbus/TCP, which expects data to be
stored in reverse byte orientation from
DeviceNet.
Do not enable byte swapping if EtherNet/IP is
used on the Ethernet side of the gateway.
Enabled or
