Environment and Enclosure
ATTENTION
This equipment is intended for use in a Pollution Degree 2 industrial environment, in
overvoltage Category II applications (as defined in IEC publication 60664-1), at altitudes
up to 2000 m (6562 ft.) without derating.
This equipment is considered Group 1, Class A industrial equipment according to
IEC/CISPR Publication 11. Without appropriate precautions, there may be potential
difficulties ensuring electromagnetic compatibility in other environments due to
conducted as well as radiated disturbance.
This equipment is supplied as open type equipment. It must be mounted within an
enclosure that is suitably designed for those specific environmental conditions that will
be present and appropriately designed to prevent personal injury resulting from
accessibility to live parts. The interior of the enclosure must be accessible only by the use
of a tool. The enclosure must have suitable flame-retardant properties to prevent or
minimize the spread of flame, complying with a flame spread rating of 5VA, V2, V1, V0 (or
equivalent) if nonmetallic. Subsequent sections of this publication may contain additional
information regarding specific enclosure type ratings that are required to comply with
certain product safety certifications.

ATTENTION
Prevent Electrostatic Discharge
This equipment is sensitive to electrostatic discharge, which can cause internal damage
and affect normal operation. Follow these guidelines when you handle this equipment:
• Touch a grounded object to discharge potential static.
• Wear an approved grounding wriststrap.
• Do not touch connectors or pins on component boards.
• Do not touch circuit components inside the equipment.
• Use a static-safe workstation, if available.
• Store the equipment in appropriate static-safe packaging when not in use.
Set the Node Address
Valid node addresses are 00…63.
Set the node address using the rotary switches or a DeviceNet configuration tool such as
RSNetWorx for DeviceNet software. Setting the switches between 64 and 99 lets the software
have address control.
Each board is shipped with the node address set to 63 in the board’s memory. The rotary
switches are set for position 99 at shipment. The switches are located near the center of the
board. The two switches are:
• MSD (most significant digit).
• LSD (least significant digit).
To reset the node address, use a small blade screwdriver to rotate the switches. Line up the
small arrow on the switch with the number setting you wish to use.
The rotary switches are only read when you apply power to the board. Settings between 64
and 99 cause the board to use the last valid node address stored in the board’s memory.
For example, the last setting in memory is 40. If a change is made to 68, and then you apply
power to the board, the address will default to 40.
LSD (S2)
The LSD (S2)
and MSD (S1)
switches are

Communicate With Your Board
This board exchanges I/O with the master on the DeviceNet network through a cyclic,
polled, or change-of-state connection.
The 1799-D16U16BAGL board consumes and produces I/O data as follows.
I/O Connection Type Consumes Produces
Cyclic 6 Bytes 11 Bytes
Polled 6 Bytes 11 Bytes
Change-of-state 6 Bytes 11 Bytes
The 1799-D16U16VAGL board consumes and produces I/O data as follows.
I/O Connection Type Consumes Produces
Cyclic 6 Bytes 11 Bytes
Polled 6 Bytes 11 Bytes
Change-of-state 6 Bytes 11 Bytes
Cyclic — the board produces and consume its I/O cyclically at the rate configured by the
master on the DeviceNet network.
Polled — the master initiates communication by sending its polled I/O message to the board.
The board consumes the message, updates any outputs, and produces a response containing
the input data.
Change-of-state — a production occurs when an input changes. A heartbeat production
occurs if no input condition change occurs within the expected packet rate. This heartbeat
production tells the master that the board is ready to communicate. Consumption occurs
when data changes and the master produces new output data to the board.

Parameter Description
AutoBaud Enables the board to match the network’s communication
rate. When enabled, Baud Rate parameter is ignored.
Input Off-to-On Filter Time Controls the amount of time the input must be in the on
state before the board reports the input as on.
Input On-to-Off Filter Time Controls the amount of time the input must be in the
off-state before the board reports the input as off.
Output Idle State Controls the state of each output when the DeviceNet
master is in an idle-state.
Output Fault State Controls the state of each output when the board loses
communication with the DeviceNet master.

Calibrate Your Analog Inputs and Outputs
Follow the example calibrations shown below to learn how to calibrate your card.
Input Calibration
The wiring method decides the operating mode of current or voltage inputs. Calibration data
of both voltage and current are stored in nonvolatile memory and selected according to the
parameter value of AI INPUT RANGE.
Example current calibration of channel 0
Perform the following steps to calibrate your current input.
1. Set input channel range to 0…20 mA.
2. Select the input channel.
3. Send command to Begin Calibration.

4. Apply 4.000 mA ±0.5 μA and allow to settle for a minimum of 200 ms.
TIP
5. Send the Accept Low Calibration command.
6. Apply 20.00 mA ( ±0.5 μA) and allow to settle for a minimum of 200 ms.
7. Send the Accept High Calibration command.
Always apply 4 mA to inputs as low reference when calibrating current
inputs.
8. If both samples were successful the module saves data to Dataflash, recalculates
module parameters and exits calibration automatically.
Calibration can be aborted or restarted at any time. Data is not saved until the end of step 7.

8. If both samples were successful the module saves data to Dataflash, recalculates
module parameters and exits calibration automatically.
Calibration can be aborted or restarted at any time. Data is not saved until the end of step 7.
Output Calibration
The wiring method decides the operating mode of current or voltage output. Calibration data
of both voltage and current are stored in nonvolatile memory and selected according to
parameter value of AO OUTPUT RANGE.
So select output range of either current or voltage prior to calibration.
Example current calibration of channel 0.
1. Set output channel range to 0…20 mA.
2. Select output channel 0.
