4-16 Configuring the DeviceNet Network
Transmit Retries
Transmit Retries specifies the number of times the scanner attempts to
retransmit a change of state or cyclic message that has not been
acknowledged by the slave device.
The connection is not necessarily dropped as a result of reaching the
retry limit. See additional information under Edit I/O Parameters on
page 4-17.
Scanlist Tab
The Scanlist defines which devices on the DeviceNet network are
owned by the scanner.
Available Devices
These are the devices on the network that have the ability to be slave
I/O devices. Slave-capable devices do not have to be used as slave
I/O by a scanner. They may alternately be used as slave I/O by
another scanner on the same network, or they may have dual
functionality. An example of a dual function device is the
1761-NET-DNI. The DNI can be used as slave I/O, or as a
communications interface for PLC’s or other DF1 full-duplex devices.
