3 Configuration

3.1 Preparations

The DeviceNet Card is a Group 2 slave device using a predefined master/slave connection set. I/O data is produced and consumed
using polled I/O messaging.
Add the soft starter to the DeviceNet manager project via the EDS file and configuration/management software tool. To operate
successfully, use the correct EDS file. An on-screen graphics bitmap file (device.bmp) is also available. The files can be downloaded
from www.danfoss.com/en/service-and-support/downloads/dds/fieldbus-configuration-files/#tab-downloads. Contact the local
supplier for further information.

3.2 DeviceNet Network Settings

Set the network communication parameters for the card via the soft starter. For details on how to configure the soft starter, see the
VLT® Soft Starter MCD 600 Operating Guide.
