Click “Apply” after all changes have been made. 2. Configure RSNetWorx Select the parameters necessary for the application and enter the amount of data to be transmitted by clicking on the “0 Bytes” next to the parameter and scrolling down the appropriate number. The following example will enable communication for 31 nodes (A and standard addresses) for both Masters 1 & 2 and diagnostics (4 bytes) via the command channel.   Line Number Description Number of Bytes   11 New Digital Inputs Master 1A 16 13 New Digital Outputs Master 1A 16 15 New Digital Inputs Master 2A 16 17 New Digital Outputs Master 2A 16 31 Disable Command Channel Enable Command Channel Click “Apply” after all changes have been made. © ifm electronic gmbh Stand: 27.11.2018

2. Configure RSNetWorx Double click on the “SDN/DNB Scanner Module” (usually addressed at 0). This will enable the scanner configuration screen. Select the “Scanlist” tab on the top of the configuration screen. The scanner may ask to have the scanlist uploaded or downloaded. Upload the current scanlist from the scanner. Add the current node, found under “Available Devices” to the scanlist by selecting the node and pressing the single arrow that points towards the scanlist box. An error will appear that states the node does not contain any I/O data. Click “OK” to clear this message. © ifm electronic gmbh Stand: 27.11.2018

2. Configure RSNetWorx Double click on the node address in the scanlist box to enable the “Edit I/O Parameters” screen. The entries in step D determine the amount of bytes to be entered under “Polled.” The “Poll Rate” should remain at “Every Scan.” In the example given under letter D, 36 bytes would be entered in both the “Input Size” and “Output Size” boxes (16 bytes for both Master 1A and 2A inputs + 4 bytes for the command channel. Repeat for outputs). The final setup for this example is shown in Fig. 3. © ifm electronic gmbh Stand: 27.11.2018

2. Configure RSNetWorx Fig. 3. Click “OK” to accept the entries. An error box will be enabled. Click “OK” to clear this message. © ifm electronic gmbh Stand: 27.11.2018

Check the box labeled “Configuration Recovery.” 2. Configure RSNetWorx Click on the “ADR” tab found on the top of the configuration screen. If ADR tab is not supported by the Devicenet Scanner skip to step 3. Check the box labeled “Enable Auto-Address Recovery” click “OK” to clear the warning. Click on the node address to be configured (it will turn blue) and press the “Load Device Config” button. Check the box labeled “Configuration Recovery.” Check the box labeled “Auto-Address Recovery.” The final setup is shown in Fig. 4. © ifm electronic gmbh Stand: 27.11.2018

3. Matching Setting in Gateway and DeviceNet Scanner Note: The following step is only necessary if ADR feature is not supported by the DeviceNet Scanner. The ASI controller needs to be set up manually to match the settings in deviceNet scanner. If already configured using the ADR feature skip to step 4. From the screen labeled “ifm electronic ControllerE” press the “Menu” option. Press the down arrow key until the menu “Fieldbus Setup” is lit. Press “OK.” Confirm the settings of the Devicenet address and baud rate. (see step 1). Press “OK” Press the “OK” key on the ControllerE until digital inputs 1A is displayed. Set the number of bytes to 16 by using the down arrow. Press “OK” © ifm electronic gmbh Stand: 27.11.2018

3. Matching Setting in Gateway and DeviceNet Scanner Repeat the above procedure for Digital outputs 1A set the number of bytes to 16. Repeat the above procedure for Digital inputs 2A and digital outputs 2A. Set number of bytes to 16. Press the “OK” key until Command Channel appears in the menu Use the arrows to select a “1” to activate this feature. Press Esc until “ifm electronic ControllerE” is displayed in the menu. © ifm electronic gmbh Stand: 27.11.2018
