NI-DNET User Manual

Configure DeviceNet Port

The physical port of each DeviceNet card is listed under the card’s name.
To configure software properties, right-click the port and select

Properties

.

In the

Properties

dialog, you assign an interface name to the port, such as

DNET0

or

DNET1

. The interface name identifies the physical port within

NI-DNET APIs.

Change Protocol

To change the default protocol for the DeviceNet (CAN) card, right-click
the card and select

Protocol

. In this dialog you can select either

DeviceNet

for NI-DNET (default), or

CAN

for NI-CAN. For more information, refer

to the section

Using NI-CAN with NI-DNET

.

LabVIEW Real-Time (RT) Configuration

LabVIEW Real-Time (RT) combines easy-to-use LabVIEW programming
with the power of real-time systems. When you use a National Instruments
PXI controller as a LabVIEW RT system, you can install a PXI DeviceNet
card and use the NI-DNET APIs to develop real-time applications. For
example, you can control a network of DeviceNet devices as a master, and
write your control algorithm in LabVIEW.

When you install the NI-DNET software, the installer checks for the
presence of the LabVIEW RT module. If LabVIEW RT exists, the
NI-DNET installer copies components for LabVIEW RT to your
Windows system. As with any other NI product for LabVIEW RT, you then
download the NI-DNET and NI-CAN software to your LabVIEW RT
system using the

Remote Systems

branch in MAX. For more information,

refer to the LabVIEW RT documentation.

After you have installed your PXI DeviceNet cards and downloaded the
NI-DNET software to your LabVIEW RT system, you need to verify
the installation. Within the

Tools

menu in MAX, select

NI-DNET»

RT Hardware Configuration

. The

RT Hardware Configuration

tool

provides features similar to

Devices & Interfaces

on your local system.

Use the

RT Hardware Configuration

tool to self-test the DeviceNet cards

and assign an interface name to each physical DeviceNet port.

Tools

NI-DNET provides tools that you can launch from MAX.
