DEVICENET OPERATION

You may operate your Apex generator either solely through the User port or through the optional DeviceNet port.

Before operating your Apex generator through the DeviceNet port, ensure that your network is connected to the DeviceNet port and the User port. Also, ensure that you have selected an appropriate MAC ID and baud rate (see “DeviceNet Rotary Switches: Baud Rate and Addressing” on page 4-74). Finally, ensure that you have read the information about command and response messages and the DeviceNet LEDs (see “DeviceNet Control Panel LEDs” on page 4-74).

Note: To operate through the DeviceNet port, you must also have a connection through the User port’s interlock pins. For information about User port interlock pins, see the User port section that applies to your Apex unit (“Apex User Port Options” on page 4-2).

RF Power Enable can be active through the User port even though DeviceNet is in operation.
