This manual describes the set-up and programming of the option. The option will allow
communication between a DeviceNet Communication Network and one drive.
To connect a drive to the DeviceNet network, the following materials will be necessary:
CM059 (SI-N1) option
CM059 (SI-N1) option Technical Manual
CM059 (SI-N1) option EDS Files (Found on www.yaskawa.com or CD.AFD7.01 included with the drive)
Drive User Manual (TM 4515, TM.F7.01, or TM.G7.01).
The DeviceNet Network
DeviceNet is a low-cost communications link to connect industrial devices (such as limit switches, photoelectric switches,
valve manifolds, motor starters, smart motor controllers, operator interfaces, and variable frequency drives) as well as control
devices (such as programmable controllers and computers) to a network. Figure 1 shows an example DeviceNet network.
DeviceNet is a simple, networking solution that reduces the cost and time to wire and install factory automation devices, while
providing interchangeability of “like” components from multiple vendors.
DeviceNet is an “open device network standard”. The specifications and protocol are open - vendors are not required to
purchase hardware, software, or licensing rights to connect devices to a system. Vendors who choose to participate may obtain
the set of specifications from the Open DeviceNet Vendor Association (ODVA).
DeviceNet provides:
DeviceNet has two primary purposes:
A cost effective solution to low-level device networking
Access to intelligence present in the devices
Master/Slave capabilities
Transport of control-oriented information associated with the control/monitoring of devices
Transport of configuration parameters which are indirectly related to system control
5
The list below presents a summary of the Physical/Media specific characteristics of DeviceNet:
Trunkline-dropline configuration
Support for up to 64 nodes
Node removal without severing the network
Simultaneous support for both network-powered and self-powered devices
Use of sealed or open-type connectors
Protection from wiring errors
Selectable data rates of 125kBaud, 250kBaud, and 500kBaud
Adjustable power configuration to meet individual application needs
High current capability (up to 16 Amps per supply)
Operation with off-the-shelf power supplies
Power taps that allow the connection of several power supplies from multiple vendors that comply with DeviceNet
standards
The list below summarizes additional communication features provided by DeviceNet:
Use of Controller Area Network (CAN) technology
Connection-based model to facilitate application to application communications
Provisions for the typical request/response oriented network communications
Provisions for the efficient movement of I/O data
Fragmentation for moving larger quantities of data
Duplicate MAC ID detection
The communication platform for the DeviceNet Network is based on the CAN (Controller Area Network) technology, which
was first developed by Bosch for the automotive industry. Some of the benefits of this protocol are high noise immunity and
high temperature operation. Because it uses a serial bus, it reduces signal wiring complexity and cost while providing highspeed digital control for optimum performance. These benefits make DeviceNet especially suitable for the industrial automation
environment.

Setting No.NameDescription
o1-03Frequency reference
set/display unit selection
Make sure to set number of motor poles (2 ~ 39) to input and output motor speed in
RPMs on DeviceNet control and operator display.
DeviceNet indicates the motor speed unit as RPM.
o1-03 setting value is used since the option converts frequency to RPM. Initial
value is 0 for frequency reference in Hz.
Run/Stop and Frequency Selection
The run/stop commands and frequency reference command can originate from serial communication, the Digital Operator, the
external terminals, or the option. The origin of the run/stop command does not have to be the same as the origin for the frequency reference command. Parameter b1-01 (Reference Selection) allows you to set up the origin of the
frequency reference and parameter b1-02 (Operation Method Selection) sets up the origin of the run/stop commands. When
the DeviceNet network is connected to the drive, the motor speed and the status of the drive can be monitored via DeviceNet
while controlling the drive from another source specified by parameters b1-01 and b1-02. The table shown below illustrates
the possible frequency reference and run/stop selections.

EDS Files in General
EDS files are typically used together with a DeviceNet Network Configuration tool.
DeviceNet Network Configuration tools are used to configure all nodes on a DeviceNet network. Network Configuration tools
provide the ability to upload data from a device and download data to a device. The EDS files provide the Network
Configuration tool with the following information:
Description of each device parameter
Maximum and Minimum values for each device parameter
Default values for each device parameter
Read/Write access for each device parameter
Help Information for each device parameter
Vendor ID of the device
Device Type of the device
Product Code of the device
Revision of the device
Each device on the network has the following values assigned to it:
Vendor ID
Device Type
Product Code
Revision
Serial Number
The Network Configuration tool will read these values from the device. When using EDS files, the tool will compare the values
of Vendor ID, Device Type, Product Code, and Revision that were read from the device to the values in the EDS file. They must
match.

DeviceNet Polled I/O Messaging Communications
DeviceNet Communications between a Master (PLC or PC) and the drive (Slave) uses Polled I/O messaging, based from the
following I/O Assemblies, to transfer control and diagnostic information to and from the drive. The “Input Data Assemblies”
or “Polled Consuming Assemblies (PCA)” refer to a message sent from the Master to the drive. The “Output Data
Assemblies” or “Polled Producing Assemblies (PPA)” refer to the response from the drive back to the Master. The factory
default of the drive DeviceNet is Extended Speed Control Input Instance 21 and Extended Speed Control Output Instance 71.
The configuration software uses the EDS file to change the PCA and PPA. By accessing the EDS file through configuration
software, the PCA and PPA can be accessed under the DeviceNet Parameter Groups “Polled Consuming Assembly” and
“Polled Producing Assembly”. Set the appropriate value using the table below and save the changes to the device.
Be sure to power down the drive, then power up to store the changes made to the PCA and PPA.

The DeviceNet communications may also be accomplished by utilizing an “Explicit Message” to communicate with the
master PLC or controller. The Explicit messaging communications is performed differently than Polled I/O type messaging in
that commands are not sent cyclically in the scan of the controlling master, but one message is sent and one response is
received. See table below for details on Explicit Message Format.

This DeviceNet Object Class can read and write all of the same parameters and monitors available via drive digital operator
keypad. This Object Class is designed specifically for Yaskawa drives.
A built-in Modbus protocol and addressing scheme is standard in all Yaskawa drives. The option converts the DeviceNet
message to Modbus for use internally in the drive.
Yaskawa Drive Parameter Object Class 100 is modeled after the drive's internal Modbus addressing scheme. The DeviceNet
path for each drive parameter is derived by converting the drive's Modbus register number to the DeviceNet path, Class/
Instance/Attribute. Reading or writing parameters to the drive via DeviceNet is simplified because the DeviceNet path closely
matches the drive's Modbus register numbers.
Table 40: Supported Service
Service Code No. (Hex)Service NameDescription of Service
0EGet_Attribute_SingleDesignated attribute content is returned.
10Set_Attribute_SingleDesignated attribute content is changed.
Table 41: Converting the Modbus Register Number to the DeviceNet Path
• The DeviceNet Class for parameter access is always “64”.
• The DeviceNet Instance is always equal to Modbus register byte 1 or the MSB (most significant byte).
• The DeviceNet Instance is always equal to Modbus register byte 0 or the LSB (least significant byte).
• The data size for each Attribute is 2 bytes.
Refer to the drive User Manual for description on the parameters and Modbus Manual for Modbus registers.
Example 1:
Reading the Reference Source Parameter b1-01 Value by Explicit Messaging
To read parameter b1-01 (Modbus register 0180 Hex) Reference Source, first convert the Modbus register number to DeviceNet
Instance and Attribute.
Then, send an explicit message with Service Code 0E Hex (Get Attribute Single) to Class 64/Instance 1/Attribute 80 Hex. If the
returned value is 0001 Hex, then Reference Source is set to Parameter Setting 1, Terminals.
Note: The same Class/Instance/Attribute paths are used in the EDS file provided by Yaskawa.
Setting the Accel Time 1 Parameter C1-01 Value by Explicit Messaging
To set parameter C1-01 (Modbus register 0200 Hex) Acceleration Time 1 to 3.5 seconds, first convert the Modbus register
number to DeviceNet Instance and Attribute.
Then, send an explicit message with Service Code 10 Hex (Set Attribute Single) to Class 64/Instance 2/Attribute 00 Hex, with
the data field as 23 Hex (35). The data field does not recognize decimal places, so the data must be written as a whole number.
Also, in reading and setting to parameters C1-01 to C1-09 Accel/Decel Time 1 to 4, be sure to check the setting of parameter
C1-10 Accel/Decel Time Setting Unit. For instance, in the above example, if C1-10 is set to value of 1 (0.01 – two decimal
places) instead of the default value (0.1 - one decimal place), the data field to set acceleration time to 3.50 seconds would be
15E Hex (350). Refer to the drive User Manual for further drive parameter descriptions.

The DeviceNet media has a linear bus topology. Terminating resistors are required on each end of the trunkline. Droplines as
long as 6 meters (20 feet) each are permitted, allowing one or more nodes to be attached. DeviceNet allows branching structures
only on the dropline. The figure below shows an example of a DeviceNet network. The thick lines indicate a trunkline, whereas
the thin lines indicate a dropline.

Maximum Cable Distance
The total amount of trunkline allowable on the network depends upon the data rate and the type of cable (thick or thin) used.
The cable distance between any two points in the cable system must not exceed the Maximum Cable Distance allowed for the
baud rate. For trunklines constructed of only one type of cable, refer to the following table to determine the Maximum Cable
Distance based on the data rate and the type of cable used. Cable distance between two points includes both trunkline cable and
dropline cable length that exists between the two points.
Baud Rate
125 kbaud500 meters (1640 feet)
500 kbaud100 meters (328 feet)
DeviceNet allows the use of either thick or thin cable to be used to construct trunklines. DeviceNet also allows a combination
of both types of cable to be used on the same network. To determine the maximum cable distance with a mix of both thick and
thin cable, use the following figure.
Table 50: Maximum Cable Distance Allowed per Baud Rate
Dropline length is the longest cable distance measured from the tap on the trunkline to each of the transceivers of the nodes on
the dropline. The total amount of dropline allowable on the network depends upon the data rate. Refer to the following dropline
budget when determining the number and length of droplines.
