Manual – MOVIPRO
®
with EtherNet/IP™ or Modbus/TCP Fieldbus Interface
47
RPI Cycle time RPI (Requested Packet Interval) in ms
The device supports a cycle time of a minimum of 4ms.
The minimum timeout interval of the fieldbus is thus 128ms (4 × 32).
6.3.4 Hardware and software configuration
There is no need to make any special settings in the EtherNet/IP™ interface for the
configuration of a DLR network. All configurations are carried out in the ring super-
visor.
INFORMATION
For information on this configuration, refer to the user guideline by Rockwell Automa-
tion "EtherNet/IP™ Embedded Switch Technology – Linear and Device Level Ring
Topologies" that is available on the Rockwell website.
6.4 Requirements for fieldbus operation
Correct startup of the device is prerequisite for fieldbus operation. For further informa-
tion, refer to chapter "Parameter setting"(→2154).
