6.2 Important Points about the Parameter Settings

This section describes
The following two methods are available to set the parameters:
Parameters that have been set are stored in separate areas on E
the parameters are set, no subsequent parameter setting is required as long as no change in
the parameters is necessary.
•
Setting with a sequence program (see Section 6.3)
•
Setting with the configuration software (see Section 6.4)
The parameters may be set by the following two methods:
•
Use TO command of the sequence program to set the parameters.
•
Use the configuration software to set the parameters.
The following discusses the parameter-setting methods.
(1) Parameter setting by the sequence program
The sequence program-based parameter setting includes the following contents:
1) Host station number (MAC ID of the host station)
2) Baud rate
3) Station number of the n-th unit
4) Connection type of the n-th slave station
5) Number of byte modules for the n-th slave station
6) Number of word modules for the n-th slave station
7) Number of double-word modules for the n-th slave station
8) Expected packet rate for the n-th slave station
9) Watchdog timeout action for the n-th slave station
10) Production inhibit time for the n-th slave station
The setting of above-shown items 3) to 10) may be done for 63 units.
To construct a network of DeviceNet that contains DN91 as the master, setting station
numbers (MAC IDs) is required for DN91 and slave stations.
Station numbers available for them are 0 to 63, and any numbers may be used for DN91 and
slave stations as long as they do not mutually overlap.
Refer to the operation manual of the slave station for the procedure of setting station numbers
(MAC IDs) of the slave stations.
For the procedure and details of setting parameters through the sequence program, refer to
Section 7.3 "Setting Parameters with a Sequence Program" and 3.4.2 (14) "Buffer Memory".
(2) Parameter setting by the configuration software
The Configuration software-based parameter setting includes the following contents:
1) Setting configuration
2) Master parameter setting
3) Bus parameter setting
4) Device (slave) parameter setting
For the procedure and details of setting parameters with the configuration software, refer to
Section 6.4 "Setting Parameters with the Configuration Software".
