Description
The 855T Control Tower Stack Light line offers DeviceNet Bases for applications where
network communication is desired. All of the functionality for the DeviceNet Interface is
contained within the mounting base. All light and sound modules for the 855T Control
Tow er Stack Light line are compatible with the standard bases, or with DeviceNet Bases.
The entire stack is powered from the DeviceNet Network. A separate power supply is not
required.
The 855T Control Tower Stack Light DeviceNet Bases allow up to five light modules, four
light modules plus a combination light and sound module, four light modules plus a
single-tone sound module, three light modules plus a dual-tone sound module, or three light
modules plus a dual-circuit light and sound module.

DeviceNet Connection
The DeviceNet Stack Light receives all power and communications through the DeviceNet
Cable. A separate power supply is not required. This is the only external connection to the
DeviceNet Stack Light.
Publication 855T-UM001C-EN-P May 2005
1-4 Overview of DeviceNet Stack Light
The DeviceNet Stack Light connects to the DeviceNet Network using a cable with a micro
connector, a mini connector, or an open-style connector.
A DeviceNet Network supports multiple Stack Light devices and allows them to
communicate with other network devices (up to 64).
The DeviceNet Stack Light operates on the network as a slave device. It does not initiate
communications except for a duplicate node address check on power-up. The master writes
data to, and receives data back from, the DeviceNet Stack Light.
The following DeviceNet configuration shows a variety of products operating as slaves to a
PLC-5 controller with a 1771-SDN DeviceNet Scanner Module.

DeviceNet Components
DeviceNet Cables and components are available from Allen-Bradley as separate cat. nos.
It is your responsibility to install and implement the DeviceNet Network and supported
devices according to the DeviceNet guidelines.
Replacement Parts
The DeviceNet Stack Light Bases and pre-assembled stacks come with all the parts required
to install and use the product. The installer needs only to supply the mounting hardware.
Replacement parts for 855T components (modules, replacement gaskets, and replacement
lamps) are available as separate cat. nos. Refer to the Signal Solutions Selection Guide
(Publication 855-SG001*-EN-P) or the Industrial Controls Catalog.

Installing the Modules
The stack light modules are installed to the base by placing a sealing o-ring between the base
and the module, lining up the arrow on the bottom of the module with the line on the top of
the prior module or base, and twisting the top module clockwise to lock them into place.
IMPORTANT
For more information on different modules, refer to the Signal Solutions Selection Guide
(Publication 855-SG001*-EN-P) or the Industrial Controls Catalog.
The DeviceNet Base is compatible with all 24V DC 855T modules.
Connection to the Network
Wire the DeviceNet Stack Light to an operating network. If the device is an 855T-DSxxxx,
the wires should be connected to a terminal block. If the device is an 855T-DMxxxx or
855T-DLxxxx, it will be connected with the quick disconnect connector. The device is fully
powered by the network, therefore it is important that the device is located near a power
supply.
For more information on system installation, refer to the DeviceNet Media Design Installation Guide (Publication DNET-UM072*-EN-P).

Stack Light Parameter Configuration
For proper operation, the parameters of the stack light must be configured. There are several
different parameters that can be configured, but the critical parameters are Module Type and
Module Mode. The parameters can be configured using RSNetWorx for DeviceNet.

The stack light will work without any parameter changes, but for flashing patterns and bulb
burnout detection, parameters must be changed. For more information on device
configuration, refer to Chapter 4 — Operations (Parameter Configuration) and RSNetWorx
for DeviceNet documentation.
