Device definition dialog box

Use the
Device definition
dialog box to configure:
  • The device identity.
  • The advanced ethernet settings.
  • Minor and major revision numbers for the firmware associated with the device.
  • Electronic keying for the device.
    IMPORTANT:
    Changing the electronic keying when online interrupts connection to the device and any device that is connected through the device. Connections from other controllers can also be broken. If an I/O connection to a device is interrupted, data loss can occur.
  • The type of connection used with the device.
    TIP:
    The Connection parameter affects the configuration options available for Input Data and Output Data and determines what data is exchanged between the owner-controller and the device.
