Figure 6 - CompactLogix DeviceNet Overview
You can use these software products with a 1769 CompactLogix controller on a
DeviceNet network.
The DeviceNet communication module:
• supports messaging to devices, not controller to controller.
• shares a common application layer with ControlNet and EtherNet/IP.
• offers diagnostics for improved data collection and fault detection.
• requires less wiring than traditional, hardwired systems.
