This 1792 ArmorBlock I/O block module (Cat. No.
1792-IB8XOB8PLP)
built-in DeviceNet I/O adapter. Because of its sealed housing, this 1792
I/O block requires no enclosure. It is compatible with PLC or SLC
programmable controllers using DeviceNet scanners. The I/O values are
accessible from the PLC or SLC programmable controller data table.
This ArmorBlock-LP module has no switches to set. You set module
parameters using the DeviceNet Manager Software (cat. no. 1787-MGR)
or similar configuration tool.

Set the Node Address
Each ArmorBlock-LP comes with its internal program set for node
address 63 and a communication rate of 125K bps. To set the node
address and communication rate, you need the following:
• host computer with DeviceNet Manager Software (or similar
configuration software tool)
• 1770-KFD RS-232 module (or similar interface)
• suitable cables to connect the 1770-KFD to your module and to
connect the 1770-KFD to your host computer
Set up a system (as shown below) to communicate with your
ArmorBlock module to set the node address and communication rate to
meet your system requirements.
