Introduction

The DeviceNet interface is a standalone, DIN-rail or panel mounted, intelligent DeviceNet-to-DF1 protocol-conversion device that lets existing DF1 devices communicate on a DeviceNet network. The DF1 device exchanges I/O data with a Master device and originates and receives DF1 encapsulated DeviceNet messages across a DeviceNet network.
The DNI provides a single DeviceNet connection point and a single RS-232 connection. The DeviceNet port is isolated from the DNI digital logic and RS-232 port.
The primary functions of the DNI are:
Collect or receive input data from the DF1 device connected on
its RS-232 port and forward that data to a connected master on DeviceNet network.
Monitor output data received from the DeviceNet master and
write that data to the DF1 device.
Allow DF1 devices to send and receive messages across the
DeviceNet network.

Quick Start

This chapter can help you to get started using the 1761-NET-DNI DeviceNet Interface (DNI). We base the procedures here on the assumption that you have an understanding of MicroLogix products. You should understand electronic process control and be able to interpret the ladder logic instructions required to generate the electronic signals that control your application.
Because this is a start-up guide for experienced users, this chapter does not contain detailed explanations about the procedures listed. It does, however, reference other chapters in this book where you can get more information.

Configure Peer-to-peer Messaging

If you have any questions or are unfamiliar with the terms used or concepts presented in the procedural steps, always read the referenced chapters and other recommended documentation before trying to apply the information.
Follow these steps to communicate with other controllers connected to DNIs on a DeviceNet network.
1. Unpack and mount the DNI.
2. Connect the DNI to the DeviceNet network.
When power is first applied to the DNI, it resides at node 63 on the network. The DNI out-of-box configuration is defaulted to Autobaud; it synchronizes to the DeviceNet network baud rate.
3. Connect a DF1 device to the DNI.
The DF1 connection automatically enters the Autobaud mode; it synchronizes to the attached DF1 device.
4. Connect to the DNI with your network configuration tool
(software such as the DNI Configuration Utility, RSNetWorx, or DeviceNet Manager) and set the DNI to the desired node number. This is called commissioning the DNI.
See Commissioning the DNI on page 58 for more details.
11 Publication 1761-UM005B-EN-P - October 2006
12 Quick Start
IMPORTANT
If your network consists entirely of DNIs (no master is present), you must disable Autobaud on at least one DNI. It is recommended that all DNIs be manually set to a specific baud rate. This is to prevent multiple DNIs from hunting for a baud rate at power-up.
5. To exchange data with other controllers over a DeviceNet
network, configure a message instruction inside each controller’s program.
See Programming Over the DeviceNet Network on page 21 for more information.
6. To send data to a specific controller on the network, enter the
destination DNI’s DeviceNet node address into the destination parameter of a message instruction. Think of each DNI/Controller pair as one unit.
EXAMPLE
To send a message from controller A (plugged into DNI number
5) to controller B (plugged into DNI number 10), controller A must have a message instruction with a destination node address of 10.
See the application example MicroLogix as I/O on the DeviceNet Network on page 69 for an example ladder program.

Configuring Master/Slave
Quick Start 13
I/O
IMPORTANT
Follow these steps to configure a DNI connected to a MicroLogix 1000 controller as a slave device to a DeviceNet master.
1. Unpack and mount the DNI.
2. Connect the DNI to the DeviceNet Network.
When power is first applied to the DNI, it resides at node 63 on the network. The DNI out-of-box configuration is defaulted to Autobaud; it synchronizes to the DeviceNet network baud rate.
3. Connect to the DNI with your network configuration tool
(software such as DeviceNet Manager or RSNetWorx) and set the DNI to the desired node number. This is called node commissioning.
4. Double-click on the DNI icon to open the DNI’s EDS.
You must have the DNI’s EDS (electronic data sheet) file and bitmap file (or icon) loaded into your configuration software. See DNI Software Files on page 53 and Setting Up Network Configuration Software on page 55 for more information.
5. For DNI Series A: set DNI Mode (parameter 17) to Standby mode
(0).
For DNI Series B: set I/O Scan Enable (parameter 12) to disable (0) (default).
6. Click Save to Device.

Modes of Use

DeviceNet I/O

The DeviceNet Interface has three primary features.
DeviceNet I/O
Explicit Messaging
Programming over DeviceNet network
IMPORTANT
The DNI is capable of being owned by a master on DeviceNet. This functionality on DeviceNet is part of the I/O class of services, and allows a master device to exclusively manage (own) another device’s (a different node number) data and resources. This type of relationship is functionally the same as a PLC with remote I/O. A PLC uses the remote I/O chassis as distributed inputs and outputs. The master/slave relationship on DeviceNet is exactly the same, except it is being done over DeviceNet.
All input and output comments are referenced from the perspective of the DeviceNet Master.
The amount of data available between devices that implement I/O master/slave services is determined by the design of each device, and is not a function of DeviceNet.
The DNI on DeviceNet is capable of handling 32 I/O words of data with a DeviceNet I/O master for DNI Series A (64 for DNI Series B). This is broken up into two data images: the input image and the output image.
17 Publication 1761-UM005B-EN-P - October 2006
18 Operation

Input Image

The input image is a configurable array of 16-bit data words. The image is configurable from 1…16 data words for DNI Series A (1…32 data words for DNI Series B). The actual data that resides in the input image is delivered to the DeviceNet master by one of three mechanisms.
Polled: Where the DeviceNet Master sends a poll request with
output data and the DNI responds with its current input data.
COS (Change of State): Where the DNI detects that data has
changed within the input image and automatically sends the data to the DeviceNet Master.
Cyclic: The DNI continuously sends the input image data to the
master at a user/scanner-defined time interval, regardless of whether the data has changed.

Network Configuration Software

Output Image

The output image is a configurable array of 16-bit data words. The image is configurable from 1…16 data words for DNI Series A (1…32 data words for DNI Series B). The actual data that resides in the output image is delivered to the DNI from the master by one of two mechanisms:
Polled: Where the DeviceNet Master sends a poll request with
output data and the DNI responds with its current input data.
COS (Change Of State): Where the DeviceNet Master detects that
data has changed within its output image and automatically sends the data to the DNI.
Cyclic: The DNI continuously receives the output image data
from the master at a user/scanner-defined time interval, regardless of whether the data has changed.
All DNI I/O parameters are configured with software such as the DNI Configuration Utility, RSNetWorx, or DeviceNet Manager and stored as part of the network configuration.
Publication 1761-UM005B-EN-P - October 2006
Configuration software is covered in Setup, Programming, and Troubleshooting on page 53.
Individual settings of the DNI are covered in DNI Configuration Parameters and Programming Notes on page 27.
Operation 19

Messaging Services

The capabilities of each individual device determine what level of messaging is supported. The types of messaging supported are:
I/O Assembly Messaging (DNI responds)
PCCC encapsulated DeviceNet Messaging (peer-to-peer)
Explicit Assembly Messaging (DNI initiates, DNI Series B Only)
See Explicit Messaging (DNI Series B Only) on page 77 for more information.

I/O Assembly Messaging

Two conditions must be met to access the I/O assemblies.
Data Enable (DNI Series A) or I/O Scan Enable (DNI Series B)
must be enabled.
The DF1 Device must be servicing the Heartbeat.
See DF1 Heartbeat on page 43 for information on using the Heartbeat.
The following sections describe additional conditions based on the DNI Series.
DNI Series A
DNI Series A supports explicit messaging to the master I/O assemblies over DeviceNet at a minimal level. If the DNI is not owned by a DeviceNet master, the DNI responds to explicit messaging gets and accepts explicit messaging sets to the master I/O assembly. If the DNI is owned by a DeviceNet master, it responds to gets, but cannot accept sets. In either case, the data size must be 16 words, even if the I/O size is smaller.
See page 65 to address DNI Series A assemblies.
DNI Series B
DNI Series B provides the above described functionality, except the data size is equal to the configured I/O size. Additionally, DNI Series B can respond to explicit messages over DeviceNet to its explicit I/O assemblies whether it is owned by a DeviceNet master or not.
See page 66 to address DNI Series B assemblies.
DNI Series B can also perform get/set services with its new DeviceNet messaging capability.
See page 77 for Explicit Messaging (DNI Series B Only).

Programmable Controller Communications Commands (PCCC) DeviceNet Messaging/ DF1 (peer-to-peer)

Allen-Bradley controllers with RS-232 ports communicate via PCCC messaging. The DNI encapsulates the PCCC messages to allow PCCC messaging to operate over DeviceNet. This is an open, non-proprietary protocol that can be implemented by anyone who needs to exchange information with an Allen-Bradley controller.
The DNI is capable of receiving the DF1 protocol, and sending or receiving it over DeviceNet. This enables any existing Allen-Bradley device that is capable of DF1 communications to an Allen-Bradley controller to use the DNI to communicate over DeviceNet.
For DNI Series A, the only stipulation is that the device has to be capable of entering a destination node address (For DNI Series B, this stipulation has been removed with the addition of the DF1 Substitute Address parameter.). The DNI uses the DF1 destination node address that is embedded in the DF1 packet to determine where on DeviceNet it needs to send the information.
This DF1-to-DeviceNet capability lets you configure a peer-to-peer network. By programming standard ladder logic message instructions, with the destination address the same as the destination DNI (when not using DNI Series B address substitution), the message is routed across DeviceNet by the DNI. The following diagram illustrates the types of messaging.

Programming Over the DeviceNet Network

IMPORTANT
Programming over a DeviceNet network via the DNI is available only with RSLogix 5/500-based controllers such as PLC-5, SLC, and MicroLogix.

Local Access to a DeviceNet Network

PCCC/DF1 messaging allows programming devices to connect to a DeviceNet network, and upload/download/monitor and even edit programs if the controller attached to the destination DNI supports that functionality. Rockwell Software RSLogix 500/RSLinx (version 2 and higher) users can connect directly to the DeviceNet network using a KFD, PCD, or PCI interface.

DNI Configuration Parameters and Programming Notes

Information About DNI Series B

The following changes have been made which affect the EDS file.
The Standby/Operational parameter has been removed from the
EDS file. The operating mode is now controlled by the I/O Scan Enable parameter.
Three new parameters have been added to the EDS file. The
parameters are:
– DF1 Substitution Address - The DF1 Substitution Address
allows any DF1 device, such as the MicroView, to communicate to A-B controllers over the DeviceNet network.
– Input Split Point and Output Split Point - The split point
parameters are used to define how much data is configured as Master/Slave I/O and how much data is configured for explicit I/O assembly messaging.
ATTENTION
DNI Series A configurations are not compatible with DNI Series B. You must manually re-enter the Series A parameters into the Series B DNI. This step is required because of the enhanced functionality of DNI Series B.
TIP
27 Publication 1761-UM005B-EN-P - October 2006
DNI Series A stopped shipping in June of 1999. DNI Series B started shipping in July of 1999.

This parameter identifies the size, in words, of the data array that is read from the controller attached to the DNI’s RS-232 port.
IMPORTANT
For DNI Series B, you must also configure the Input Split Point.
See Input Split Point on page 30.
The array may contain up to 16 (16-bit) words of data for DNI Series A (32 words for DNI Series B) from a contiguous block within the attached controller.
