2–6 D485 MODBUS TO DEVICENET CONVERTER – USER GUIDE
INSTALLATION
CONFIGURATION
SWITCHES
The configuration switches are used to set the DeviceNet MAC ID and baud rate settings.
Normally, these switches are covered by a plastic hatch. Note that the node address can
not be changed during runtime, i.e. the D485 requires a reset for any changes to have
effect. Recycle the power supply to reset the module.
