REP-DN-W
Repeater Module for DeviceNet™
The REP-DN is a potted, fully connectorized repeater. It is very rugged and can be mounted directly
on the machine. It is designed for use with DeviceNet only . Network segments attached together
with a repeater are considered separate physical networks (trunk and drop lengths for each segment
are determined as if the other segments are not there), but one logical network (addresses cannot
be duplicated - the scanner and conguration tools work as a single network).
The repeater does not consume an address and is invisible to all the other devices on the network.
The repeater does not have an EDS le.
The REP-DN can be used to extend either the Trunk or the Drop lines. It can also be used to isolate
power supplies on networks with multiple supplies.
There is no limit to the number of repeaters that can be used on one network. When a message is
repeated a 2 millisecond delay is introduced. This is typically insignicant compared to the overall
scan time of the network when a few repeaters are used. If more than four repeaters are used in
series, the interscan delay may need to be increased.
The repeater Baudrate is set via rotary switch. The baudrate on each side of the repeater must be the
same. Dierent rates would cause the slow side to be overloaded with messages from the fast side.
