SST-DNET-COM software needs to be used together with the DeviceNet scanner module. First, connect GT200-PN-DM to Ethernet, and then connect GT200-PN-DM's DeviceNet port and user's DeviceNet device to the DeviceNet network. Power Supply of GT200-PN-DM is 24VDC. Power on After correctly Connecting to Power Supply, untill 4 lights of the gateway are on, press and hold the button for 3 seconds, on DeviceNet side MS and NS will orange flash once and then release.
Page 30
Then click the “Search”, the software will display the searched device in the list, select the scanner station to be configured for the interface setting: www.SSTAutomation.com...
Note: In the interface settings configuration, "IP address" is the IP of the device selected at the time of search. "Scanner Address" is the Address of DeviceNet Scanner Module. Set any value between 0 and 63, which can't conflict with other node addresses on the bus. "Scanner Baud Rate" is the baud rate of DeviceNet scanner module, and has 125K, 250K, and 500K options.
"Device ID" displays the information of the device manufacturer, type, device, sort and version. If you choose to configure GT200-PN-DM, after setting all the parameters, you can click the "Apply" button to download.

selecting it, click "Edit I / O parameters". This interface sets the number of input and output bytes of the adapter: In the "Input", and "Output" options interface, the user can map the address of the device added to the scanner and select automatic mapping.
Page 36
If users need to map manually, they can also click the "Advanced" button to set the starting address in the dialog box shown below. In the advanced Settings interface, the user can also set the byte exchange mode of this adapter device.There are three types of byte exchange: no-exchange, two-byte exchange, and four-byte exchange.
Page 37
If you need to set the unit that maps the starting address in "Advanced", click the "Options" button to set it. As shown in the figure below, "Byte Alignment" means in one byte and "Word Alignment" means in two bytes: The settings of the PROFINET side input/output data blocks are set in master station configuration software such as TIA Portal or STEP 7.
Status word: When Enable, you can monitor the connection status of DeviceNet devices. After Disable, 8 bytes are reserved at the front of the PROFINET input buffer. Each bit of the 8 bytes represents the status of a adapter station. Bit0 of byte 0 represents DeviceNet adapter station No.

Reset: The “Reset” button can restore the default value of the parameters, and can only “Reset” for a single parameter. Upload: The “Upload” button supports single and full parameter operation. After clicking “Upload”, the interface will display the actual parameter value of the current online adapter DeviceNet device. Download: The “Download”...
Page 41
The number of bytes in/out of SST-DNET-COM software can also provide this information. In the figure above, the input and Output 64-Bytes bytes provided under the “Polled” project are the default input and output data byte lengths. The maximum number of input bytes supported by SST-DNET-COM software is 128, and the maximum number of output bytes is 112.
Page 42
If the output data length is incorrect, it will be displayed: Note that after the address is changed in the general interface, because the device with the modified address will be restarted and the DeviceNet internet connection has been disconnected. At this time, the I/O data input and output operation will not be able to see the data.
Select “GT100-PN-DM/GT200-PN-DM/GT200-DP-DM” from the left and drag it to the bus on the right, Select GT200-PN-DM and double-click the gateway icon to modify the DeviceNet address of the gateway. similarly, drag the DeviceNet adapter device to the bus on the right and modify the DeviceNet device address to be consistent with the actual one, as shown in the following figure: www.SSTAutomation.com...
Page 45
Double-click the GT200-PN-DM gateway icon, click “Scan List” in the properties interface, select the DeviceNet device to the scan list side on the available devices side, click “Edit I/O Parameters”, and set the actual I/O data length of the device. As shown below:...
Page 47
After configuring the DeviceNet device I/O data length, click the input and output interface to map the data. Select the device and click “Map (M)” to map the input/output data, as shown in the following figure: In the “DeviceNet Parameters” setting interface, users can set DeviceNet parameters. “Input Data Hold/Clear” www.SSTAutomation.com...
Page 48
indicates whether the corresponding DeviceNet input data is cleared when the “number of Command Resennds” errors reaches the set value. Select “Clear” to clear the DeviceNet input data. Select “Hold” to keep the DeviceNet input data as the last correct data received. “Number of Command Resends” indicates the number of times the command is resent when the DeviceNet command response error occurs.
4.9 Send the Explicit Message Through explicit message modification, it is the advanced function of DeviceNet network. Users need to have a better understanding of DeviceNet network. After the device is online, click the right button to “send an explicit message”. The interface pops up as shown in the figure above.
The data conversion between GT200-PN-DM's DeviceNet and PROFINET is established through a “ mapping ” relationship. There are two data buffers in GT200-PN-DM, one is PROFINET network input buffer, and the other is PROFINET network output buffer. The DeviceNet read command writes the read data to the network input buffer for PROFINET network reading.
