8-2 Communicating with Devices on a DeviceNet Link
Step 1: Install the hardware
Before you can connect the DriveLogix system to the DeviceNet network, you
must configure the 1788-DNBO communication card and make sure it’s
properly installed in the DriveLogix controller. Refer to Access Procedures on
page C-1 to understand how to gain access to the NetLinx daughtercard slot
on the DriveLogix controller.
You’ll need to configure the communication daughtercard slot number to 1 in
the RSLogix 5000 programming software. The controller uses slot 0.
For more information about configuring a 1788-DNBO card, see the DeviceNet
Daughtercard Installation Instructions, publication 1788-IN053.
