Chapter
3
Configuring the DeviceNet Encoder
DIP Switches
Chapter Objectives
Chapter 3 provides information that you need to configure the
encoder. In this chapter, you will read about the following:
•
Setting the node address.
•
Setting the transmission baud rate
•
Activating bus termination.
•
Diagnostic LED
•
The Preset function.
Setting up the 842D
DeviceNet Encoder
Specific features of the 842D must be configured by means of
hardware settings. (Remote setting of the DIP switches via a Node
Commissioning Tool is not supported at this time.) These features are
Node Address, Baud Rate and the DeviceNet bus termination. In
addition, the encoder can be set to a fixed position value (PRESET
function) by actuating a push-button. In order to execute this
function, the large PG plug on the rear of the encoder has to be
removed. Inside, three DIP switches and a micro push-button become
visible.
