3.1 Flow Chart for Searching Devices
Before developing the DeviceNet applications, users should diagnose the
connection among the slave devices. First, users can search the slave devices
in the network by using the searching function of the APIs. If the connection
among the master and other slave devices is good, uses can find the
information of each slave device in the same DeviceNet network. When users
have no idea about how to find the slave devices by I-8124W, the following
steps in the figure 3.2 is good reference. The users could take advantage of
the searching function to check the connection status of all slave devices. The
detail about these functions is described in the next chapter.
