Installation and Wiring 3-7
Setting the Baud Rate Dip switches 7 and 8 set the baud rate at which the Communication
Module communicates on the network. The factory default setting for
baud rate is 125 kbps.
Figure 3.7
Setting the Baud Rate
To set the DeviceNet Baud Rate:
1. Refer to Table 3.B
for the switch setting of a specific Baud Rate.
2. Slide switches 7 and 8 to the appropriate positions using a pointed
tool.
Important: When switches 7 and 8 are ON, the DeviceNet Baud
Rate is set to the value in parameter P104 - [NV Baud Rate].
Cable Lengths and Baud Rates
The baud rate determines the maximum length of the DeviceNet
cable. Refer to Table 3.C
to determine cable lengths and baud rates.
