as well as for communications over long cable lengths. Depending on the 
application and baud rate setting, you can extend this length. 
DeviceNet Scanner — 2080-DNET20
The Micro800 DeviceNet plug-in module serves as a scanner and client for 
explicit messaging to remote devices including I/O and drives, using a proven and 
well-accepted fieldbus/network. It also provides better performance than using 
serial and Ethernet (EtherNet/IP Class 3) communications. 
For more information, see the DeviceNet Plug-in – 2080-DNET20
 on page 39.
2080-SERIALISOL is suitable for communication over longer cable length 
of up to 1000 m using RS485, with up to 19200 bps baud rate. 
The electrical characteristics of cable used and good wiring practices are 
very critical in achieving reliable communication performance over longer 
cable length. A shielded twisted pair RS485 22AWG cable (example: 
3106A from Belden) is recommended. Terminate both ends of the cable 
with 120 ohm resistance.
