13 DeviceNet™ or EtherNet/IP™ connection
DeviceNet™ was developed by Rockwell Automation and the user organization ODVATM (OpenDeviceNet™
Vendor Association) as an open field bus standard, based on the CAN protocol. DeviceNet™ is in accor-
dance with the European standard EN 50325.
Just like ControlNet™ and EtherNet/IP™, DeviceNet™ is part of the family of CIP™-based networks.
CIP™ (Common Industrial Protocol) forms the common application layer of these three industrial networks.
DeviceNet™ is an object-oriented bus system which works according to the producer/consumer procedure.
DeviceNet™-devices can be client (master) or server (slave) or both. Clients and server can be producer,
consumer or both.
Based on DeviceNet™ the field bus EtherNet/IP™ was developed, which integrates the devices networked
via EtherNet/IP™ seamlessly – automatically via mapping in the I/O tree of the RSLogix programming tools.
As an option, the configuration software tool (RSNetWorx), known from DeviceNet™, can be used for the
integration of further field devices into the network.
