DeviceNet Communication Adapter
1.1Product Overview
1.1.1Function
This adapter is installed on any TSX Momentum I/O base to form a complete I/O module that communicates on a DeviceNet network. A programmable controller or other DeviceNet master device on the network can then read from the input terminals and write to the output terminals of the I/O base.
For information about the use of I/O data words in communication with I/O bases, refer to the TSX Momentum I/O Bases User Manual, part number 870 USE 002.
1.1.2Physical Structure
Each adapter connects to the internal communication connector of its I/O base. Clips lock the adapter in place, and can be released with a common screwdriver to remove the adapter. The user can fill out the front panel wiring label to identify the wiring connections and application of the I/O base terminals.
1.1.3Network Compatibility
The adapter complies with the Open DeviceNet Vendor Association (ODVA) Specification Release 2.0 for for group 2 only slave devices supporting polled and strobed connections.
For a complete description of the DeviceNet network, including software operation of this device on the network, physical installation and wiring guidelines, refer to the DeviceNet specification published by ODVA. Current information about the ODVA specification can be obtained at the ODVA Web site: http://www.odva.org
ODVA Vendor ID
The ODVA Vendor ID number for Schneider Automation is 243 decimal.
1.1.4Operating Voltages and Error Control
Power for the adapter and I/O base is provided by the user at the field location. The adapter receives its operating voltage through its I/O base internal connection. The adapter monitors its voltage and goes offline to the network if the voltage is not within tolerance.
