Chapter 11 Introduction to DeviceNet
DeviceNet Purpose • Open network • Link low-level devices to PLCs • Sensors • Pushbutton stations • Distributed I/O blocks • Intelligent motor started overloads • Variable frequency drives
DeviceNet Open Network • Open network • Network devices (nodes) can be purchased from many different vendors • Network managed by Open DeviceNet Vendors Association (ODVA) • ODVA.ORG
DeviceNet Advantage • Save wiring costs • Rather than run power wires separately to each device • Rather than run signal wires from each field device separately back to PLC, I/O module connect devices directly to a network • One cable with four wires • Two power wires • Two signal wires
Field Devices More Intelligent • Traditional systems • A photo switch counting pieces as they pass on a conveyer was wired directly into an input module. • Counter programmed on ladder to track parts’ count • Counter done bit triggered output point to control field action
DeviceNet Advantage • Many DeviceNet devices are intelligent. • Photo switch has counters and timers incorporated into sensor. • PLC does not need to have timer or counter on ladder. • When timer or counter is done, the action is carried out through RSNetWorx for DeviceNet software to trigger field device across the network.
DeviceNet Components • PLC with DeviceNet scanner • RSNetWorx software for DeviceNet • Trunk line • Drop lines • Nodes • Minimum one power supply • Two 121-ohm ¼-watt termination resistors • Up to 64 nodes

DeviceNet Cabling • Thick round • Thin round • KwikLink cable • Special-use cable • Open-style connectors
Thick Round Cable • Used for trunk line • T-ports used to connect from trunk line to drop lines
Thin Round Cable • Typically used for drop lines • Can be used for trunk in short networks with low current requirements
KwikLink DeviceNet Connection Insulation displacement connector KwikLink flat cable
Insulation Displacement Connection • For non-wash down • Typical usage conveyor lines • Mount on inside rail of conveyor • No conduit needed • Easy installation of new nodes • No minimum spacing
DevicePort • Passive 4- or 8-point taps • Connected to trunk line by drop line • Previous slide showed an 8-point DevicePort • Nodes connected to DevicePort by drop lines
T-port • Used to connect drop line to trunk line • Drop line connected to DevicePort and then on to multiple nodes • Drop line connected directly to node • Maximum drop line length 20 feet
DeviceLink • Adapter to interface non-DeviceNet devices to network • 2- or 3-wire 24-V sensors • Mechanical limit switches • Any non-DeviceNet device with relay contacts • One required for each non-DeviceNet node
Additional Media • Refer to the DeviceNet Media catalog for a complete listing of available products.
Maximum Trunk Line Length (1 of 2) • Maximum cable distance between any two nodes • Not necessarily actual length of backbone • Maximum length determined by cable type and baud rate
Trunk Line Calculation One Node number
Example One • Left terminating resistor to node 1 is 12 feet. • Drop line node 1 is 2 feet. • Right terminating resistor to node 12 is also 12 feet. • Node 12 drop line is 2 feet. • From node 1 drop line to node 12 drop line is 800 feet.
Trunk Line Calculation (1 of 2) • For this example, trunk line length is maximum length of cable between terminating resistors.
Trunk Line Calculation (2 of 2) • 12 + 800 + 12 = 824 feet • Refer to table for maximum baud rate of network.
Maximum Trunk Line Length Trunk line length is over 820 feet so maximum baud rate for this network is 125 K.

Example Two • Left terminating resistor to node 1 drop line is 20 feet. • Node 1 drop line is 6 feet. • Right terminating resistor to node 12 drop line is 2 feet. • Node 12 drop line is 8 feet. • Trunk line from node 12 drop to node 14 drop line is 3 feet. • Node 14 drop line is 12 feet. • Node 1 trunk line to node 14 is 300 feet.
Trunk Line Calculation • For this example, trunk line length is maximum length of cable between any two nodes or terminating resistors. • Assume round thick trunk line. • Look at network again.
Power Supply 300 ft 20 ft 2 ft 3 ft 11 8 ft 6 ft 7 8 12 ft 3 9 12 6 1 4 2 10 13 5 14 For this example, trunk line length is maximum length of cable between any two nodes or terminating resistors. Trunk Line Calculation Two (1 of 2)
Trunk Line Calculation Two (2 of 2) • The longest cable distance is between the left terminating resistor and node 14. • For this example, the distance between terminating resistors would not be the correct calculation. • 20 + 300 + 12 = 332 feet • Refer to table for maximum baud rate of network.
Maximum Trunk Line Length (1 of 3) Trunk line length is over 328 feet so maximum baud rate for this network is either125 K or 250 k.
Maximum Trunk Line Length (2 of 3) • The rule is to go back 20 feet from the termination resistors and see if there is a drop line that is longer. • If a drop is longer, then it must be included in the trunk line calculation. • Remember maximum drop line length is 20 feet.
8 7 15 3 4 20 feet Maximum Trunk Line Length (3 of 3) • Terminating resistor and node 00 is 3 feet. • Node 00 and node 1 is 4 feet. • Trunk line to node 7 is 15 feet. • 15 foot drop is longer than 3 +4 for trunk.
Cumulative Drop Line Length (1 of 2) • Sum of all drop lines • Maximum drop line length to any one node • 20 feet • Cumulative drop line length also determines network baud rate
Text figure 11-30 Cumulative Drop Line Length (2 of 2)
Total All Drop Line Lengths (2 of 2) • Cumulative length is 131 feet. • Nodes 10, 13, and 14 exceed the 20-foot maximum drop to any 1 node. • Shorten up cable. • Cumulative drop line length is now 127 feet. • Refer to the table for maximum baud rate for network.
Cumulative drop line length is 127 feet. Cumulative Drop Line Length
Power Calculations • Add up total device current • Determine trunk line length • Cable type • How many power supplies and where mounted • Look up tables for power allowed on network • Full calculation method available for additional accuracy
Common Problems With DeviceNet Networks (1 of 2) • Improper installation • Trunk line length correct? • Cumulative drop line length correct? • Power supply proper size? • Overdriving network with too much information flow? • Refer to DeviceNet Cable System Planning and Installation Manual from Rockwell Automation Web site.
Common Problems With DeviceNet Networks (2 of 2) • Network modification after installation • Trunk line length recalculated? • Cumulative drop line length recalculated? • Power supply recalculated? • Overdriving network with too much information flow?
