10.6  Network Node Status Display 
10.6.1  Scan List Node Status Display 
The function is used for monitoring whether the DeviceNet slave is offline or not. The scanner 
module conducts the real-time monitor and control of the nodes in the scan list and maps the status 
of each node in the scan list to one bit so that users could acquire the status information of the 
network node through monitoring the value in the corresponding register. 
If the starting address for the input is D1000, the corresponding relations between the node status 
registers and the slave are as follows. 
Node status 
register 
Corresponding network node 
Node 15  Node 14  Node 13
… …  Node 1  Node 0 
Note: If the starting address for the input is set to D567 (See section 10.6.2), the node status 
registers are D567~D570 instead of D1000~D1003. 
 
When the nodes in the scan list are normal, the corresponding bit is OFF; when the nodes are 
abnormal, the corresponding bit is ON. 
10.6.2  Scanner Module Status Display 
If the starting address for the input is D1000, users could acquire the status message of the scanner 
module AH10DNET-5A through monitoring D1004 in real time.   
When the scanner module works normally, the content of D1004 is 0; when the scanner module is 
initializing, the content of the high byte and low byte in D1004 are 1 and 0 respectively; when an 
error occurs in the scanner module, the high byte content in D1004 is 2 and the low byte content is 
the error code. 
Regarding the details on the error code, please refer to the seven-segment display in section 
10.10.2.

(See section 7.11.2.) 
Note: If the starting address for the input is set to D600 (Refer to section 10.6.2), the register in the 
above table is D604 instead of D1004.
