Configuring Safety Connections between a
GuardLogix Controller and POINT Guard I/O
Modules on a DeviceNet Network
To use POINT Guard I/O™ modules with a GuardLogix® controller via a
DeviceNet network, you must use a 1734-PDN module in place of an adapter.
When using a 1734-PDN module, you must use RSNetWorx™ for DeviceNet
software to configure the POINT Guard I/O modules. The Generic DeviceNet
Safety Module profile in the Logix Designer application to use the module data
inside of the safety task.
Configure the Module in
RSNetWorx for DeviceNet
Software
Before you can add the module to the GuardLogix controller project, you must
perform a number of tasks in RSNetWorx for DeviceNet software.
1. Set the node address of the module by using the Node Commissioning
