This section provides an outline, types, editing method, and effective timing of DeviceNet Unit
parameters.
A parameter is the name given to the user constants that are required as the settings used to
operate the DeviceNet Unit. You must set the optimum values for parameters according to
the machine to which the DeviceNet Unit and the W-series Servo Driver are connected.
You can edit the DeviceNet Unit parameters using the Setup Tool, DeviceNet Configurator
(version 2.2 or later), or host controller.
For parameters of the W-series Servo Driver, refer to Chapter 8 Servo Driver Settings or
the OMNUC W-series Servomotors/Servo Drivers User's Manual (I531-E1- ).
Parameters are classified depending on their purpose as follows:
• Unit parameters
• Origin search parameters
• Machine system and peripheral device parameters
• Speed, acceleration, and deceleration parameters
• Positioning parameters
• Multi–speed positioning parameters
• Notch output positioning parameters
• Point table parameters
Parameters are further classified according to the priority of the setting, as shown below.
Type
A Parameters that must be set even when using the DeviceNet Unit in standard mode.
B
Parameters that must be set when using the DeviceNet Unit in special mode.
C Parameters whose settings hardly ever need to be changed.
