Communication protocol

What this chapter contains

This chapter describes the DeviceNet communication protocol for
the adapter module and the configuration of the scanner. For
detailed information on DeviceNet communication, refer to ODVA
DeviceNet Specifications Release 2.0.

DeviceNet

DeviceNet is a protocol based on the CAN technology. CAN
specifies the physical layer interface. DeviceNet specifies the
wiring and the data transfer through CAN.
The FDNA-01 module is a device acting as a Group 2 only Server
realizing the Predefined Master Slave Connection Set functionality.
The Off-line Connection Set functionality and Unconnected
Message Manager (UCMM) are not supported.

Object modeling and functional properties

One of the main features of DeviceNet is object modeling. A group
of objects can be described with a Functional Profile. The FDNA-
01 adapter module realizes the ODVA AC/DC drive Functional
Profile with additional features.
