4-6 Configuring the DeviceNet Network
6. Click on OK to upload the devices and go online.
RSNetWorx will begin browsing for network devices. When the
software is done browsing, your network is displayed on your
screen.
TIP
RSNetWorx performs a single pass browse when you
go online or choose the browse feature. The
software will poll for devices one time and display
the results. If a node which was online later goes
offline, there will be no “live” indication in
RSNetWorx. You must manually perform a browse to
detect the missing node.
To manually perform the browse, press the
button.
TIP
If RSNetWorx fails to find a device, check the
physical connection to the device. If the physical
connection is intact, verify that the device’s baud rate
is the same as the DeviceNet driver’s.
TIP
If your RSNetWorx configuration software does not
include the required EDS (Electronic Data Sheet) file,
it is available via http://www.ab.com/networks/eds
.
Register the new EDS file using the EDS Wizard in
RSNetWorx. Access the wizard from the Tools
pull-down menu.
