1-2 DeviceNet Unit Features
The following are features of the CS-series and CJ-series DeviceNet Units
(CS1W-DRM21 and CJ1W-DRM21).
Multi-vendor Network Devices made by other companies (masters or slaves) can be connected to
DeviceNet because it conforms to open field network specifications. By using
a combination of valves, sensors, and other DeviceNet products, the network
can be adapted to various field-level applications.
Simultaneous Remote I/O
Communications and
Messaging Services
Remote I/O communications that constantly transfer I/O between a DeviceNet
Unit and slaves as well as message communications where the DeviceNet
Unit sends and receives data as needed can both be executed simulta-
neously. When a DeviceNet network is constructed, this feature ensures the
network will be able to handle applications that require the free flow back and
forth of bit data and message data. FINS commands can be executed along
with DeviceNet explicit messages in message communications.
Remote I/O Communications
Note Refer to SECTION 4 Remote I/O Master Communications for details on
remote I/O communications.
