3.1 Initial power up

EXP-DN-BDI-VDI can use net power, if power is lower because many devices in
devicenet system and, it also can use DC power with itself.
Before power up, check that you have connected the power supply, the bus connection
and the connection to the basic unit correctly.
If the EXP-DN-BDI-VDI unit is factory setting, the net address and baud rate of the station
must be set.

3.2 Networking Settings

EXP-DN-BDI-VDI module is built in the function of automatic identification drive. Use DIP
switch SW1_8 (8PIN) to set up. Set SW1_8 to be OFF if it is connected to the inverter of
VDI100/BDI50 series.

3.3 Network Address Settings and Self-adjust Baud Rate

In the net system, each device has one unique node address (MAC ID), user can set
node address form 0 to 63, and each node MAC ID must be unique in the net system.
EXP-DN-BDI-VDI module use SW1.1～SW1.6 to setting node address.
EXP-DN-BDI-VDI communication module supports the self-adjust communication baud
rate, three kinds of 123K, 250K and 500K in compliance with DeviceNet specifications. When
device is at power on, the module is only connected to network and obtains the baud rate
from the detection of network package. After the baud rate is self-adjusted, it is connected to
DeviceNet in normal operating mode.
After powering on the device at the basis of hardware setting address, it is disabled when
baud rate and network bits address are modified by network tool.
