Features
The 825-P DeviceNet Communication Card features the following:
• The card receives the required power from the DeviceNet network.
• Rotary switches let you set the node address and network data rate prior to
moun
ting in the 825-P Modular Protection System and applying power.
Alternatively, the switches can be set to positions that allow for
configuration of these settings over the DeviceNet network, utilizing a
network configuration tool such as RSNetWorx for DeviceNet.
• Status indicators report the status of the device bus and network
co
mmunications. They are visible from the back panel of the 825-P
Modular Protection System as installed.
