Gateway 312785C Hardware, Gateway Configuration, Configure the Gateway DeviceNet Option Card

Hardware

To use DeviceNet on the Gateway, an option card must first be installed. The option card provides the hardware necessary to support the CAN physical layer specifica- tion as required by the DeviceNet standard.

Configuring the option card is a two-stage process; first the option card must be selected in Gateway (DeviceNet Option Card), and then the ‘DeviceNet Predefined Group 2 Server Driver’ configured to run on the newly created DeviceNet Interface port.

Gateway Configuration

The following example requires use of an Allen Bradley 1756-ControlLogix PLC, along with RSLogix 5000 and RSNetWorx for DeviceNet software and a Gateway.
