2-3-1 Setting the DeviceNet Node Address
Set the DeviceNet node address using the rotary switches (NODE ADR) on
the front of the ED Router.
Note The node address is set to 63 at the factory.
Any node address in the setting range can be used as long as the same
address is not used by another node. If a value between 64 and 99 is set on
the rotary switches, the node address can be set using a software setting on
the Network Configurator.
IMPORTANT
• Turn OFF the power to the ED Router before setting the rotary switches.
• Do not change the rotary switches while the power is ON.
• A node address duplication error will occur if the same address is set for
more than one node. Communications will not start if this error occurs.
Note • Use a small flat-blade screwdriver to set the rotary switches, being careful
not to scratch them.
• Refer to 2-3-3 DeviceNet Node Address and Baud Rate Software Settings
for software setting procedures.
