Starting the device
Apply the supply v18 … 30 V DC (+24 V DC model).
The MA 255
i
starts up; the PWR LED displays that it is ready for operation.

MA 255
i
on the DeviceNet
Install the EDS file corresponding to the MA 255
i
in your planning tool/the control
(e.g., RSNetWorx DeviceNet).
Notice!
You can find the EDS file at:
www.leuze.com -> Download -> identify -> Modular interfacing units.
The MA 255
i
is configured in the planning tool/control by means of the EDS file. The MA 255
i
is assigned an address in the planning tool, which then has to be set in the MA 255
i
via the
S1 and S2 address switches. Only if the addresses are the same between the MA 255
i
and
the control can communication be established.
After all parameters have been set in the planning tool/control, the download to the MA 255
i
takes place. The set parameters are now stored on the MA 255
i
.
Afterwards, all MA 255
i
parameters should be stored via upload in the control. This aids in
retaining the parameters during device exchanges, as they a re now also stored centrally in
the control.
The DeviceNet baud rate is defined for the entire network in the planning tool/control. The
baud rate is set on the MA 255
i
via the S3 baud rate selector switch.
Only if the baud rates are the same is communication with the MA 255
i
possible.
