After adding a VersaMax PNS to the LAN, its parameters can be configured by either double-clicking
on the scanner in the Navigator, or right-clicking and selecting Configure from the menu.
PROFINET Scanner Parameters (Settings Tab)
Inputs Default: Choose whether the RX3i CPU will set inputs from any modules in the PNS
module's remote node to Off or Hold Last State in the following cases:

The PNC is not operational or is removed.

The PNC cannot reach the scanner due to cable or network configuration issues.

The PNS is not able to scan the VersaMax module in its remote node.
Input Status and Length: The address in reference memory for the PNS module's 32 bits of status
data. The address can be assigned to valid %G, %I, %Q, %T or %M memory or Symbolic bits. The
default value is the next available %I address. See the VersaMax PROFINET Scanner Manual,
GFK-2721, for definitions of the PNS module's input status bits.
Output Status and Length: The address in reference memory for the PNS module's 32 bits of
output control data. The address can be assigned to valid %G, %I, %Q, %T or %M memory or
Symbolic bits. The default value is the next available %Q address. See the VersaMax PROFINET
Scanner Manual, GFK-2721, for definitions of the PNS module's output control bits.
I/O Scan Set: Specifies the I/O scan set to be assigned to the PNS. Scan sets are defined in the
CPU's Scan Sets tab. The valid range is 1 through 32; the default value is 1.
