52 Configuring POINT I/O and ArmorPOINT I/O DeviceLogix modules using RSNetworx for DeviceNet
Peer #xx MacID There are eight (0…7) peer Mac ID parameters. Each one defines the
MacID or Slot Number of the peer from which this module will
consume data. The default is "No Connection."
You can enter the MacID or Slot number, 0…63, or a relative offset
from the address of the module (-4 to +4).
Once a valid MacID is set, Peer Exists = 1 in DeviceLogix program.
See more details on peer configuration later in this chapter and in
Appendix A .
Peer #xx Size There are eight (0…7) Peer Size parameters. Each one defines the
size in bytes of the message received from the peer. The default and
maximum value is 24 bytes. The minimum is 1 byte. See
Appendix A
for peer message sizes of POINT I/O and ArmorPOINT I/O modules.
If the received message size does not match the Peer Size value, the
data will be considered invalid and the appropriate error bits will be
set (Produced assembly: Peer Missing = 1. In DeviceLogix program:
Peer Data valid = 0.)
This parameter is ignored if the Peer MacID is set to "No Connection."
Peer #xx EPR There are eight (0…7) Peer EPR parameters. Each one defines the
Expected Packet Rate in milliseconds (ms) of the peer connection. If
this module does not receive valid data from a peer for 4 times the
EPR, the appropriate error bits will be set (Produced assembly: Peer
Missing = 1. In DeviceLogix program: Peer Data Valid = 0.)
The default value is 1000 ms. The maximum is 65535 ms and the
minimum is 0 ms.
This parameter is ignored if the Peer MacID is set to "No Connection."
