6 Bit-Strobe Command

6.1 Principle of Bit-Strobe

Bit-strobe is one of the standard I/O transmission methods for DeviceNet. The length of command is fixed to 8
bytes (i.e. 64 bits), and every bit corresponds to a slave.

When b0 of D6282 = 0, the node 0 equipment will be selected, and it will need to respond with a message to
the master. When b0 and b1 of D6282 = 0, the node 0 and node 1 equipment will be selected, and they will be
to respond with a message to the master.

In the bit-strobe mode, the master will not send control data to the slave node. However, when its
corresponding bit is set to 0, the slave node will have to respond with I/O data to the master. When its
corresponding bit is set to 1, the slave node will not have to respond with I/O data to the master.
