Replacing the C200HW-DRM21-V1 on a
CS-series CPU Rack with the CS1W-DRM21
With the following procedure, the CS1W-DRM DeviceNet Unit can be used to replace the C200HW-DRM21-V1
DeviceNet Master Unit mounted to a CS-series PLC in which the scan list is enabled. The device parameters of
the C200HW-DRM21-V1 will be transferred to the CS1W-DRM21.
Note
The present I/O allocation information of the C200HW-DRM21-V1 is read regardless of whether it is
fixed or used-allocated and written to the CS1W-DRM1. Therefore, no address changes in the ladder
program are necessary. The addresses in the status area, however, must be changed in the ladder pro-
gram according to the CS1W-DRM21 status area. Furthermore, the message communications functions
require ladder program changes. Refer to information on differences with the C200HW-DRM21-V1 in the
CS1W-DRM21 DeviceNet Unit Operation Manual
.
• Place the present system online without changing the configuration (i.e., without removing the C200HW-
DRM21-V1), and then upload the network configuration by selecting
Network
and
Upload
(or import the
network configuration file (.ntf) from version 1 of the Configurator by selecting
Network
and
Import
).
• Save the device parameters of the C200HW-DRM21-V1 in a device parameter file (.dvf).
• Delete the C200HW-DRM21-V1 from the Network Configuration Window (i.e., the virtual network) in the
Configurator.
• Add the CS1W-DRM21 to the Network Configuration Window.
• Set the node address CS1W-DRM21 to the previous node address of the C200HW-DRM21-V1.
• Select the CS1W-DRM21 in the Network Configuration Window, and import the device parameter file (.dvf)
for the C200HW-DRM21-V1 by selecting
Device, Parameter,
and
Import
. The CS1W-DRM21’s Master
function will be enabled automatically.
• Turn OFF the Programmable Controller and replace the C200HW-DRM21-V1 with the CS1W-DRM21.
• Turn ON the Programmable Controller.
• Place version 2 of the Configurator online.
• Select the CS1W-DRM21 in the Network Configuration Window and set the device parameters to the
CS1W-DRM21 by selecting
Device, Parameter,
and
Download
.
The above procedure will transfer the device parameters of the C200HW-DRM21-V1 to the CS1W-DRM21.
The IR, HR, and DM areas allocated by version 1 of the Configurator will be allocated to the same addresses in
the CS1. Link Area words LR 00 through LR 63 will be, however, changed to CIO 1000 through CIO 1063.
