Other Features

Change of State

Change of state enables the scanner module to perform a scan:
whenever a network data change occurs, or
at a user-configurable heartbeat rate
Because data is only sent on an as-needed basis, this feature increases system performance by reducing network traffic.

Cyclic I/O

Cyclic I/O allows you to instruct the scanner module to perform a scan at a spe c ific se nd rate.
Because data is only sent at a periodic rate, this feature increases system performance by reducing network traffic.

Pass-Through

The 1771-SDN “pass-through” feature allows communication with the DeviceNet network from another network. This feature can be used to adjus t an d f i ne t une the nodes on your network.
For more information on how to use the pas s-throu gh feature, refer to Chapter 5 of the PLC-5 DeviceNet Scanner Module User Manual, publication 1771-6.5.132.

How Your Module Communicates with the PLC-5 Processor

The 1771-SDN scanner module uses four methods to transfer data, status and command information between the scanner and the PLC-5:
DIO points for high-speed discrete outputs
DIO points for high-speed discrete inputs
BTW to send output data to the scanner
BTR to upload input data from the scanner
Using DIO Points for High-Speed Discrete Inputs and Outputs
The foll owing table describes chassis addressin g modes and the number of discrete inputs and outputs assigned to the 1771-SDN Scanne r Module slot .
Addressing Mode Discrete Inputs Discrete Outputs
1/2-slot 24 24
1-slot 8 8 2-slot 0 0

Program Your PLC-5 Processor

These inputs and outputs will appear in the PLC I/O image table in the location corresponding to the rack, group and slot the module is plugged into. Since the bits are in the I/O table, they can be forced.
For more information about chassis addressing modes, refer to your PLC-5 processor system level installation manual.
You must pr ogram your PLC -5 processor so it commun i c a t e s with the 1771-SDN Scanner Module. Communication is possible when you program your processor through multiple block transfer instructions. The scanner uses the size of the block transfer to map the block
transfer data words into the scanner’s internal data table. The scanner module accepts blocks of different sizes and knows that each block has a different meaning.
PLC-5 block transfer instructions use one integer file in the data table section for module location and other data to execute the instruction. This is the control block file. The block transfer data file stores data that you want to transfer to your mod ule (wh en pr ogra mmin g a bl ock transfer write (BTW)) or from your module (when programming a block transfer read (BTR)). The address of the block transfer data file is stored in the control block file.
Publication 1771-IN014B-E N-P - September 2001
Y ou must select a separate data file for each of the block transfer instructions. You must also use separate 5-word block transfer
DeviceNet Scanner Module Catalog Number 1771-SDN/C 17
control files for each of the block transfer in structio ns when an integer file is used. This is not necessary when a control block file is
a BT data type.
To make sure the ins truction is reset af ter the block tr ansfer completes and recyc les , y ou mus t use enab le bits as th e cond i tio ns on e ach r ung with the PLC-5. The following figure shows a PLC-5 sample program
.

When using rungs like those in the preceding figure, the processor alternates between the BTR and the BTW , waiting to request the next block transfer until the previous block transfer is completed. When only one block transfer is active at a time, it is considered a single- thr eaded bloc k t ransf er. Sing l e-th reade d blo ck t ran sf ers op erat e in an orderly sequence of read and write, however, they are slower than the asy nc hronous method, shown bel ow:

As soon as an asynchronous block transfer completes, it is requested again, independent of other block transfers going to th e same module. If you have programmed many block tran sfers to the same logical rack
(especially a remote rack), you will fill the processor’s queue. In this situation, the asynchronous method can result in irregular timing between successive executions of the same block transfer.
For more information on programming and block transfers, refer to your PLC-5 Programming Software Instruction Set Reference Manual, publication 1785-6.1.

Using BTW to Send Outputs to the Scanner

The PLC-5 downloads output data to the scanner using block transfer write instructi ons over the 1771 backplane. The scanner module can update a maximum of 357 output words by internally linking together six different sized block transfers as shown in the following table.

Each indi vidual bl ock transfer is independent, but alwa y s updates t he
same output bytes in the scanner’s memory table. Of the scanner output words 0 through 61, the word 0 is reserved for the Module Command Register. Block transfer sizes 1 through 50 update scanner output words 0 through 49, thus reducing the required BTW time when 50 or fewer output words are needed. Sizes 51 thru 56 are illegal and size 64 is used for Explicit Message Program Control. For more details on Explicit Message Program Control, refer to page 26.
If the scanner receives a BTW of 62 words, then it knows that it contains the first block of the table. A BTW of 61 words, if necessary, contains the second block of the table and so on for 60, 59, 58 and 57 words.
DeviceNet Messages
You determine the data that is exchanged with a given node on channel 1 or 2 by creating custom configurations using RSNetworx software version 2.22 or later. Refer to you r RSNetworx documentation or online help and your 1771-SDN Scanner Configuration Manual (publication number 1771-6.5.132) for more information on custom configurations.

Module Command Register

The firs t word of the BTW downl oaded from th e PL C-5 to block 62 is reserved as the module command register. The r egister is downloaded with every 1 through 50 and 62 word block transfer write. This modifies the scanner’s operation.
To execute a command, you set the appropriate bits in the module command word, then perform a block transfer write to the first block (the 62 word block) of the scanner output table. When the scanner receives the command it immediately executes it. You latch bits 0 through 5 in your program to maintain the scanner’s desired state.

Operating Mode Operating Mode Description
Idle
The scanner does not map output dat a to the devices, but keeps network connections to devices open so device failures can be detected. Input data is returned from devices, and mapped into the scanner input table and the discrete inputs. Outputs on the network are not under program control and will be in their configured ‘idl e st ate.’ The scanner must be put into this mode to perform configuration of the scanner database tables.
Run
The scanner module maps output data from its scanner output table and discrete outp uts to each device on the network. Inputs are received and mapped into the scanner input table and discrete inputs. Outputs on the network are un der program co ntrol. Placing the PLC-5 into PROG or REM_PROG mode places the scanner into idle mode regardless of the state of the bits in the module command register. Placing the PLC-5 into RUN or REM_RUN mode causes the state of the bits in th e modu le comma nd r egis te r to de termi ne the scanne r state.
Fault Network
The scanner stops communicating with devices on the network. No outputs or inputs are mapped. O utputs on the network are not under program control. If the scanner was in run, devices will go to their configu red ‘fau lt st ate.’
Enable
The DeviceNet channel is enabled for communication. This is the normal opera ting state of the channel.
Disable
The DeviceNet channel is disabled for communication. No communication may occur over this channel. Outputs on the network are not under program control. If the scanner was in run, devices will go to their configured ‘fault state.’ Numeric error code 90 will occur when channel is disabled.
Scanner Active
This is the normal operating mode of the scanner.
Scanner Halt
All scanner operations stop when this command is issued. No communications occur over either DeviceNet port. No b lock transfer or discrete I/O mapping occurs. Outputs on the network are not under program control. If the scanner was in run, devices will go to their configured ‘fault state.’ Numeric error code 97 will occur - you must reset the scanner or cycle power to the scanner to recover from this state.
Scanner Reboot
This comman d ca uses th e s can ner to res et as th ou gh th e res et b utton ha d been pressed. When this command is issued, all scanner communication stops for the duration of the scanner’s initialization sequence. Outputs on the network are no longer under program control. If the scanner was in run, devices will go to their configured ‘fault state.’

Use BTR to Upload Input Data from the Scanner

The PLC-5 uploads input data from the scanner using block transfer read instructions over the 1771 backplane. The scanner interprets BTRs of length 1 through 50 and 62 words as being from the first block of the scanner input table. The scanner module can update a maximum of 357 input words by internally linking together six different sized block transfers. See the table below.

Device Active Table (1 block, 51 words)
When the scanner receives a BTR, it automatically knows which block of data is desired by the size specified.
Y ou may upload portions of the scanner input table rather than the entire table, to support higher-speed operations. The scanner will interpret any BTR of length 1 through 50 with the words 0 thru 49 of block 62 of the scanner in put table. BTR s of sizes 57 through 61 represent full blocks of the table. A BTR of 52 words contains the Device Failure Table . Sizes 53 through 56 are res erved. Size 64 is used for Explicit Message Program Control. For more details on Explicit Message Program Control, refer to page 26.

To reduce block transfer time a nd i nc rease syst em performance, use only the words you need.
Use the RSNetWorx for DeviceNet software to map data from a DeviceNet node into the scanner input table. Data from a DeviceNet node can be split and put into as many as four different locations in the scanner input table.

Module Status Register

In the Module Status Register (word 0, block 62), bits 0 through 5 indicate to the PLC-5 the current state of the scanner module. When a Module Comman d R egis ter c omm and is s ent t o the sc an ner mod ule , the respective bits are set in the Module Status Register when the command executes. Depending on network load, the scanner may take several moments to detect network status changes. The bits latch
on in the “on” state until the command clears.
Bits 6 and 7 indicate that you should read the device failure table for more specific information about which devices failed. Bits 8 and 9 indicate that you should read the device autoverify table to determine which device has incorrect device keying or a misconfigured data size in the scanner configuration tables. Use the DeviceNetManager software to correct this error.
You can use bits 6 and 7 of the Module Status Register to enable the scanner module’s Module Command Register to react to certain conditions. An example reaction to a condition is to keep the communication ports in the “idle” mode until the bits clear. When the bits clear, this indicates that all dev ices on the networks are operational. When the devices are operational, you can put the ports in the “run” mode, so that output data goes to the devices.
If a device failure is detected, you can put the communication into the “idle” mode, so that all devices would go into t heir idl e state. You may tie these inputs to the Module Command Register, so that you may use them to adjust the operating mode of t he scanner when devices fail or go online at startup.
You can also modify your control logic to run differently to compensate for the loss of communication with a certain node. An alarm message to alert an operator of the problem is also possible.

Operating Mode Operating Mode Description
The scanner does not map output data to the devices, but keeps networ k connections to devices open so device failures can be detected. Input data is returned from devices, and mapped into the scanner input table and the discrete inputs. Outputs on the network are not under program control and
will be in their configured ‘safe state.’ The scanner must be in this mode to perform configuration of the scanner database tables.
Run
The scanner module maps output data from it s scanner output table and discrete outputs to each device on the network. Inputs are received and mapped into the scanner input tabl e and discrete inputs. Outputs on the network are under program control.
Placing the PLC-5 into the PROG or REM_PROG mode places the scanner into IDLE MODE regard le ss of th e st ate of the bi ts in the mod ul e comman d register. Placing the PLC-5 into RUN or REM_RUN mode causes the state of the bits in th e mod ule c omma nd r eg iste r to deter mi ne th e scan ne r stat e.
Fault
The scanner has stopped communicating with devices on the network. No outputs or inputs are mapped. Outputs on the network are not under program control. If the scanner was in run, devices will go to their fault state.
Device Failure
One or more of the devices in the scan ner’s scan list has failed to communicate with the scanner.
Autoverify Failure
One or more of the devices in the scanner’s scan list is returning an incorrect num ber of bytes of data in res p onse to a s trobe/poll, acco r di ng t o the information stored in the scanner’s scan list.
Communications Failure
There is no communication on the port.
Duplicate Node Address Failure
There is another node with the same address on the network.
Scanner Configuration Missing or Corrupted
Either the I/O chassis addressing mode is set to an illegal position or, the chassis addressing mode switch does not match the value stored in the scanner’s scan list.
Client /server transactio n response queued
The client/server response is loaded and available with a 64-word Block Transfer Read.

Device Active Table

The Device Active Table is located in words 0–7 of a 51 word BTR. The scanner assigns one bit of the first 128 bits to each device on the networks. The scanner assigns one bit to consecutive Device Addresses.
Devices on Channel 1 are indicated by a single bit in consecutive order in words 0–3. Devices on Channel 2 are indi cated by a single bit in consecutive order in words 4–7.
If a bit is set, it in dicates that the node is in the scanner’s scan list an d has successfully communicated with the scanner. These bits are not cleared if the slave node goes off-line. The bits are cleared by resetting the scanner.

Device Failure T able

The scanner maintains one Device Failure Table accessed with a 52-wo rd B TR. The table con si st s of:
Communications Failure Bitmap – the scanner tracks device
failures in its scan list b y as sig ning one bit of the first 128 bits in the table to each device on the networks. The scanner assigns one bit to consecutive Device Addresses. Devices on Channel 1 are indicated by a single bit in consecutive order in words 0–3. Devices on Channel 2 are indicated by the bits in words 4–7. If a bit is set, it indicates that the node is in the scanner’s scan list and is either not present, not communicating or failed autoverify.
Autoverify Failure Bitmap – the scanner tracks auto verify failures
by assigning one bit of the second 128 bits in the table to each device on the networks. A value o f 1 in t he bit position in dicates a fail ure is det ec ted a nd a value of 0 indi cate s no rmal opera t ion. The scanner assigns one bit to consecutive Device Addresses. Devices on Channel 1 are indicated by a single bit in consecutive order in words 8–11. Devices on Channel 2 are indicated by the bits in words 12–15. If a bit is set, it indicates that the device is returning device keying or a data size that does not match the keying or data size in the scanner configuration ta ble.

The scanner module requires a precisely-formatted block transfer read and write size of 64 words. The Explicit Message Control table in the scanner module is 64 words. The scanner module uses the block transfer size as an indicator that the content is a client/server request.

How to Format the Explicit Message T ransaction Block

Ten 32-word transaction blocks within the scanner module are reserved for Explicit Message Program Control. The transaction blocks accommodate both the download of Explicit Message Requests and the upload of Explicit Message Responses.
The sca n ne r modu l e c a n a cc ommod a t e one reque st or respon se f or each transaction block and can transfer two blocks for each upload and download. You must format each transaction block as shown in the f ollo wing fi gure :

The transaction block is divided into two parts:
transaction header – contains information that identifies the
transaction to the scanner and processor
transaction body – in a request, this contains the DeviceNet
Class, Instance, Attribute and Service Data portion of the transaction. In a response, this contains only the response message.
Each of the data attributes in the transaction header are one byte in length:
command/status – for each download, you assign a command
code to instruct the scanner how to administer the request:
Command Code Description
0 Ignore transaction block (block empty) 1 Execute this transaction block 2 Get status of transaction TXID 3 Reset all client/server transactions
4–255 Reserved
For each upload, the status code provides the processor with status on the device and its response:
Status Code Description
0 Ignore transaction block (block empty) 1 Transaction completed successfully 2 Transaction in progress (not ready) 3 Error – slave not in scan list 4 Error – slave offli ne 5 Error – DeviceNet port disabled/offline 6 Error – transaction TXID unknown 7 Error – slave not responding to request 8 Error – Invalid command code 9 Error – Scann er out of buffers

TXID (transaction ID) – when you create and download a
request t o t he sc a nner, the pro c e ssor’s ladd e r logic progr a m assigns a TXID to the transaction. This is a one-byte integer in the range of 1 to 255. The scanner uses this value to track the transaction to completion, and returns the value with the response that matches the request downloaded by the processor. The ladder logic program monitors rollover and usage of TXID values.
size – the size of the transaction body in bytes. The transaction
body can be as many as 29 words ( 58 bytes) in len gth. If the s ize exceeds 29 words, an error code will be returned.
port – the DeviceNet port where the transaction is routed. The
port can be z ero (Channel 1) or one (Channel 2).
MAC ID (node address) – the DeviceNet network address of
the slave device where the transaction is sent. This value can range from 0 to 63. The port and MAC ID attributes coupled together identify the target slave device.
service – for each Explicit Message Request and Response, the
service attribute contains the service request and response codes that match the corresponding request for the TXID.

How the Processor and Scanner Module Manage Messages

Block transfer operations between the processor and the scanner always originate in the processor. The scanner module can only wait for the processor to download a transaction block to the module or request an upload of a transaction block from the module.
Once an Explicit Message Request transaction block is downloaded to the scanner module, a ladder logic progr am i n t he pro cessor p olls th e scanner module for the transaction block containing the Explicit Message Response for that req uest. This is do ne by the proces sor with a Block Transfer Read on the scanner module.
Publication 1771- IN014B-EN-P - Septem ber 2001
32 DeviceNet Scanner Module Catalog Number 1771-SDN/C
Depending on the network load, the scanner could take a few seconds to complete the request. When a response is loaded, bit 15 of the module status register is set to 1. The program may have to poll the scanner module a number of times before the scanner returns a Response Transact i on Block.
The scanner module recognizes I/O data and control as higher priorities over explicit messaging on DeviceNet.
Message lengths and slave device types impact transaction message completion times. If the processor has queued multiple Explicit Message Transactions to the scanner module for multiple slave devices, the transactions with the slaves may not complete in the order in which the requests were received. The slave responses are queued to the 64 word Bl ock T ransf er Read in the or der in which th ey are received. As response transaction blocks are uploaded, the
processor’s program matches the responses to the requests using the TXID field.

Explicit Message Program Control Limitations

The processor is always the DeviceNet client and the slave is
always the DeviceNet server.
A max imum of te n Explicit Mes sage R equest Transaction Blocks
with the execute command can be queued to the scanner module at any time. For example, five Block Transfer W ri te files contai ni ng tw o tran sac ti ons e ach, can be pe rformed a t any time . The scanner module receives and deletes any additional client/server requests with the execute command over the maximum of ten.
As transactions are removed from the queue and response transaction blocks are returned to the processor , additio nal transaction blocks can be issued in their place, as long as the total does not exceed ten.
The scanner module supports two transact ion bloc ks per uplo ad
and download.
If a slave device is not communicating at the time the scanner
module processes its Request Transaction Block, the scanner module will return an error status for that transaction.
At a minimum, the scanner module supports the following
DeviceNet services in Request Transaction Blocks:
Service Name: Service Code: Example:
Get_Attribute_Single 0E
Set_Attribute_Single 10
Get_Attribute_All 01
Set_Attribute_All 02
hex
hex
hex
hex
Upload a single parameter value from a device
Download a single parameter value to a device
Upload all parameter values from a device
Download all parameter values to a device
Continuous Block Transfers of 64 words are not supported.
All transaction blocks are processed, therefore, any unused
transaction blocks must be left blank.
Client/Server commands and requests with transaction IDs that
are in use are deleted by the scanner module.

If a slave device returns a DeviceNet error in response to the
request downloaded fro m the processor, the scanner recognize s the error as a successful transaction (status code =1).
A failure to respond to the request within the number of retries or timeout period specified for the Explicit Message Connection is recognized by the scanner module as an error. The error code is returned in the status attribute of the transaction header.

Explicit Messaging Error Codes

Error codes have two bytes of data. The first byte is a General Error Code and the second is an optional Additional Code Field that may contain additional information about the error. If this field is unused, the value 0FFH is shown.
