Setting the CPU Network Address
The DL240, DL250–1 and DL260 CPUs have built in DirectNet ports. You can use the
230
Handheld Programmer to set the network address for the port and the port communication
240
parameters. The default settings are:
250-1
• Station Address 1
260
• Hex Mode
• Odd Parity
• 9600 Baud
The DirectNet Manual provides additional information about choosing the communication
settings for network operation.
Setting Retentive Memory Ranges
The DL205 CPUs provide certain ranges of retentive memory by default. The default ranges
are suitable for many applications, but you can change them if your application requires
additional retentive ranges or no retentive ranges at all. The default settings are:
DL230
Memory
Area
Default Range Avail. Range Default Range
Control Relays
C300 – C377 C0 – C377 C300 – C377
V-Memory
V2000 – V7777 V0 – V7777 V2000 – V7777 V0 – V7777 V1400 – V3777 V0 – V17777 V400 – V37777 V0 – V37777

Counters
CT0 – CT77
Stages

You can use AUX 57 to set the retentive ranges. You can also use DirectSOFT menus to select
the retentive ranges.
WARNING: The DL205 CPUs do not come with a battery. The super capacitor will retain the values in
the event of a power loss, but only for a short period of time, depending on conditions. If the retentive
ranges are important for your application, make sure you obtain the optional battery.
