!WARNING It is extremely important that a PLC and all PLC Units be used for the speci-
fied purpose and under the specified conditions, especially in applications that
can directly or indirectly affect human life. You must consult with your OMRON
representative before applying a PLC System to the above mentioned appli-
cations.
3 Safety Precautions
!WARNING Never attempt to disassemble a Unit or touch the inside of Unit while power is
being supplied. Doing so may result in serious electrical shock or electrocu-
tion.
!WARNING Provide safety measures in external circuits, i.e., not in the Programmable
Controller (CPU Unit including associated Units; referred to as PLC), in
order to ensure safety in the system if an abnormality occurs due to malfunc-
tion of the PLC or another external factor affecting the PLC operation. Not
doing so may result in serious accidents.
Emergency stop circuits, interlock circuits, limit circuits, and similar safety
measures must be provided in external control circuits.
The PLC will turn OFF all outputs when its self-diagnosis function detects
any error or when a severe failure alarm (FALS) instruction is executed.
As a countermeasure for such errors, external safety measures must be
provided to ensure safety in the system.
The PLC outputs may remain ON or OFF due to deposition or burning of
the output relays or destruction of the output transistors. As a counter-
xvii
Operating Environment Precautions 4
measure for such problems, external safety measures must be provided
to ensure safety in the system.
When the 24-VDC output (service power supply to the PLC) is overloaded
or short-circuited, the voltage may drop and result in the outputs being
turned OFF. As a countermeasure for such problems, external safety
measures must be provided to ensure safety in the system.
!WARNING The CPU Unit refreshes I/O even when the program is stopped (i.e., even in
PROGRAM mode). Confirm safety thoroughly in advance before changing the
status of any part of memory allocated to I/O Units, Special I/O Units, or CPU
Bus Units. Any changes to the data allocated to any Unit may result in unex-
pected operation of the loads connected to the Unit. Any of the following oper-
ation may result in changes to memory status.
Transferring I/O memory data to the CPU Unit from a Programming
Device.
Changing present values in memory from a Programming Device.
Force-setting/-resetting bits from a Programming Device.
Transferring I/O memory files from a Memory Card or EM file memory to
the CPU Unit.
Transferring I/O memory from a host computer or from another PLC on a
network.
!Caution Execute online edit only after confirming that no adverse effects will be
caused by extending the cycle time. Otherwise, the input signals may not be
readable.
!Caution Confirm safety at the destination node before transferring a program to
another node or changing contents of the I/O memory area. Doing either of
these without confirming safety may result in injury.
4 Operating Environment Precautions
Do not install the Unit in any of the following locations.
Locations subject to direct sunlight.
Locations subject to temperatures or humidities outside the range speci-
fied in the specifications.
Locations subject to condensation as the result of severe changes in tem-
perature.

cables, and other items with locking devices are properly locked into
place. Improper locking may result in malfunction.
Be sure that all the mounting screws, terminal screws, Unit mounting
screws, and cable connector screws are tightened to the torque specified
in the relevant manuals. Incorrect tightening torque may result in malfunc-
tion.
Leave the label attached to the Unit when wiring. Removing the label may
result in malfunction if foreign matter enters the Unit.
Remove the label after the completion of wiring to ensure proper heat dis-
sipation. Leaving the label attached may result in malfunction.
Always use the power supply voltage specified in this manual.
xix
Application Precautions 5
Double-check all the wiring and connection of terminal blocks and con-
nectors before mounting the Units.
Use crimp terminals for wiring. Do not connect bare stranded wires
directly to terminals.
Observe the following precautions when wiring the communications
cable.
Separate the communications cables from the power lines or high-ten-
sion lines.
Do not bend the communications cables.
Do not pull on the communications cables.
Do not place heavy objects on top of the communications cables.
Be sure to wire communications cable inside ducts.
Use appropriate communications cables.
Take appropriate measures to ensure that the specified power with the
rated voltage and frequency is supplied in places where the power supply
is unstable. An incorrect power supply may result in malfunction.
Install external breakers and take other safety measures against short-cir-
cuiting in external wiring. Insufficient safety measures against short-cir-
cuiting may result in burning.
Double-check all the wiring and switch settings before turning ON the
power supply.
Check the user program for proper execution before actually running it on
the Unit. Not checking the program may result in an unexpected opera-
tion.
Confirm that no adverse effect will occur in the system before attempting
any of the following. Not doing so may result in an unexpected operation.
Changing the operating mode of the PLC.
Force-setting/force-resetting any bit in memory.
Changing the present value of any word or any set value in memory.
After replacing Units, resume operation only after transferring to the new
CPU Unit and/or Special I/O Units the contents of the DM Area, HR Area,
and other data required for resuming operation. Not doing so may result in
an unexpected operation.
When transporting or storing the product, cover the PCBs with electrically
conductive materials to prevent LSIs and ICs from being damaged by
static electricity, and also keep the product within the specified storage
temperature range.
When transporting the Unit, use special packing boxes and protect it from
being exposed to excessive vibration or impacts during transportation.
Do not attempt to disassemble, repair, or modify any Units.

6-1 Applicable Directives
EMC Directives
6-2 Concepts
EMC Directives
OMRON devices that comply with EC Directives also conform to the related
EMC standards so that they can be more easily built into other devices or
machines. The actual products have been checked for conformity to EMC
standards. (See the following note.) Whether the products conform to the
standards in the system used by the customer, however, must be checked by
the customer.
EMC-related performance of the OMRON devices that comply with EC Direc-
tives will vary depending on the configuration, wiring, and other conditions of
the equipment or control panel in which the OMRON devices are installed.
The customer must, therefore, perform final checks to confirm that devices
and the overall machine conform to EMC standards.
Note Applicable EMS (Electromagnetic Susceptibility) and EMI (Electromagnetic
Interference standards in the EMC (Electromagnetic Compatibility) standards
are as follows:
6-3 Conformance to EC Directives
DeviceNet products that meet EC directives must be installed as follows:
1,2,3... 1. DeviceNet Units are designed for installation inside control panels. All De-
viceNet Units must be installed within control panels.
2. Used reinforced insulation or double insulation for the DC power supplies
used for the communications power supply, internal circuit power supply,
and the I/O power supplies.
3. DeviceNet products that meet EC directives also meet the common emis-
sion standard (EN61000-6-4). When DeviceNet products are built into
equipment, however, the measure necessary to ensure that the standard
is met will vary with the overall configuration of the control panel, the other
devices connected to the control panel, and other conditions. You must
therefore confirm that EC directives are met for the overall machine or de-
vice, particularly for the radiated emission requirement (10 m).
The following examples show means of reducing noise.
1,2,3.... 1. Noise from the communications cable can be reduced by installing a ferrite
core on the communications cable within 10 cm of the DeviceNet Unit.

Overview of DeviceNet Section 1-1
1-1 Overview of DeviceNet
DeviceNet is a multi-bit, multi-vendor network that combines controls and data
on a machine/line-control level and that conforms to DeviceNet open field net-
work specifications.
Three types of communications are supported: 1) Remote I/O master commu-
nications that automatically transfer I/O between slaves and the CPU Unit to
which a DeviceNet Unit is mounted without any special programming in the
CPU Unit, 2) Remote I/O slave communications that automatically transfer I/O
between the Master and the CPU Unit to which a DeviceNet Unit is mounted,
and 3) Message communications that read/write messages, control operation,
or perform other functions for other CPU Units to which a DeviceNet Unit is
mounted and slaves. Message communications are achieved by executing
specific instructions (SEND (192), RECV (193), and CMND (194)) from the
program in the CPU Unit to which the DeviceNet Unit is mounted.
The following functions are supported with a CS/CJ-series DeviceNet Unit.
1,2,3... 1. Without the Configurator Software Tool
a) I/O area words can be flexibly allocated for remote I/O Master and
Slave communications. Three types of fixed allocations as well as
user-set allocations through allocated DM Area words are possible.
b) More than one DeviceNet Unit can be mounted under a single PLC.
c) More than one DeviceNet Unit can be connected in a single network.
With the Configurator, remote I/O can be allocated in any order, i.e.,
not necessarily in the other of node addresses.
Note The Configurator that is connected through a dedicated Board or
Card uses one node in the DeviceNet network. It does not use a
node if it is connected by a serial line.
2. A CS/CJ-series DeviceNet Unit can function as either a master or slave in
remote I/O communications. Both can be used simultaneously.
3. With a CS/CJ-series DeviceNet Unit, the DeviceNet network can be treat-
ed exactly like a Controller Link, Ethernet, or other network for message
communications or remote programming and monitoring by a CX-Pro-
grammer.

DeviceNet Unit Features Section 1-2
1-1-5 DeviceNet Configurator
Use version 2 of the DeviceNet Configurator for the CS1W-DRM21(-V1)/
CJ1W-DRM21 DeviceNet Unit. Earlier versions of the DeviceNet Configurator
do not support the CS1W-DRM21 DeviceNet Unit.
Note The following Boards and Cards can be used.
Note Use Configurator version 2.10 or higher for the CJ1W-DRM21.
1-2 DeviceNet Unit Features
The following are features of the CS-series and CJ-series DeviceNet Units
(CS1W-DRM21(-V1) 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.

without the Configurator
With CS/CJ-series DeviceNet Units, remote I/O communications can be allo-
cated in any area without the Configurator simply by using DM Area settings.
If the Configurator is used, it allows you to change the node address order for
more flexible I/O allocations. This feature ensures the proper I/O allocations
for any application and it makes effective use of PLC memory by simplifying
programming.
Note Refer to 4-4 User-set Allocations for details.
Slave Functions CS/CJ-series DeviceNet Units can be used as both masters and slaves, and
master and slave communications can be executed either separately or simul-

DeviceNet PLCs (i.e., PLCs with a CS/CJ-series DeviceNet Unit or a Pro-
grammable Slave).
Note Refer to 7-1 Connecting to the CX-Programmer via the DeviceNet for details.
Inter-network Connections FINS messages can be sent back and forth between DeviceNet and other
networks (e.g., Controller Link, SYSMAC LINK, and Ethernet). This feature
enables seamless message communications between all types of networks,
including DeviceNet.

Multiple PLCs in a Single
Network
Multiple DeviceNet Units can be connected in a single network for message
communications between PLCs as well as for remote I/O communications
between PLCs and slaves in multiple groups. This feature allows a DeviceNet
to be used as a common bus that can integrate all types of control with less
wiring.
Note Refer to 4-1 Master Remote I/O Communications for details.
Multiple DeviceNet Units
on a Single PLC
Up to 16 CS/CJ-series DeviceNet Units can be mounted to a single PLC. This
feature enables greater DeviceNet remote I/O control capacity and ensures
that DeviceNet can easily handle line expansion as well as other applications.
Note 1. Multiple Units can be mounted without the Configurator.
2. DeviceNet Units set as both slaves and/or masters can be mounted at the
same time.

DeviceNet Unit Setup Files
(Memory Card Backup)
Setup data (e.g., scan lists) in a DeviceNet Unit can be written as a file to the
Memory Card mounted in a CPU Unit. This feature greatly simplifies
DeviceNet Unit replacement. A DeviceNet Unit device parameter file (same as
data setup file) that is prepared offline using the Configurator can be saved on
a Memory Card, and setup data from the Memory Card can be downloaded to
a DeviceNet Unit. (See Appendix D Memory Card Backup Function for more
details.)
Note Refer to 7-2 Memory Card Backup Functions for details.
System Backup (Simple
Backup)
The CPU Units simple backup function enables backup data for the entire
PLC, including DeviceNet Units, the CPU Unit, and Serial Communications
Units/Boards to be saved on or downloaded from a Memory Card.
The simple backup function is supported only when using a combination of a
CS1-H CPU Unit with a CS1W-DRM21-V1 DeviceNet Unit, or a CJ1-H CPU
Unit with a CJ1W-DRM21 DeviceNet Unit.
Note Refer to 7-3 Simple Backup Function for details.

Various Connection
Methods
Normal multi-drop, T-branch multi-drop (with up to three branches), and daisy-
chain line connections are available. These methods can be combined to con-
struct a flexible system that suits the floor layout.
Maximum Network Length
of 500 m
A network can connect up to 63 Slaves and can handle remote I/O communi-
cations of up to 2,000 byes (16,000 points without the Configurator) per
DeviceNet Unit. A maximum network length of 500 m is possible with a baud
rate of125 Kbps using thick cable.
High-speed
Communications
High-speed communications are possible at up to 500 Kbps for a trunk line
length of 100 m.
Compatibility with Slow
Slaves
The communications cycle time can be set even without the Configurator so
slaves with slow response times can be used.
A Wide Variety of Slaves A wide variety of I/O devices, like Remote I/O Terminals, Environment-resis-
tant Terminals, Remote Adapters, Sensor Terminals, Temperature Input Ter-
minals, CQM1 I/O Link Units, Analog I/O Terminals, C200H I/O Link Units,
RS-232C Units, MULTIPLE I/O TERMINALs, Temperature Adjusters, Invert-
ers, and Intelligent Plugs can be used as slaves.

Applicable connections The DeviceNet Unit automatically selects the applicable con-
nection.
The user can also specify poll, bit-strobe, COS (change of
state) or cyclic for the applicable connection of each slave us-
ing the Configurator. Up to two types of connections can be set
for each Slave (although COS and cyclic cannot be specified si-
multaneously).
Communications cycle time Uses values calculated using the following equations to derive
default value.
Example: 16 Input Slaves (16 points each), 16 Output Slaves
(16 points each), and a baud rate of 500 Kbps: 9.3 ms
The user can set a value within a range from 2 to 500 ms. How-
ever, the calculated value is only enabled when the calculated
value from the conditions equation is greater than the setting.
Note Uses the default value calculated using 1 input word and
1 output word even for missing nodes when the scan list
is disabled.

Other func-
tions
Remote programming/monitoring func-
tions
A CX-Programmer connected to the serial communications port
of a PLC to which a CS/CJ-series DeviceNet Unit is mounted can
remotely program and monitor DeviceNet slave PLCs with a CS/
CJ-series DeviceNet Unit mounted. Either the peripheral port or
built-in RS-232C port can be used with the Host Link or periph-
eral bus protocol. (Scheduled for CX-Programmer Ver. 2.1 or
higher)
Note 1. Serial ports on a Serial Communications Board/Unit
can be used in addition to the ports on the CPU Unit.
2. Inter-network communications across up to 3 levels is
possible (even over different types of network).
3. This is also possible from a CX-Programmer on net-
work.
Operation from the Configurator con-
nected through a serial line
Allows all online monitoring and setup functions to be performed
on a master PLC on the DeviceNet network from the Configura-
tor connected through a serial line (scan list registration, commu-
nications parameter settings, etc.).
Memory Card backup function Allows DeviceNet Unit data settings (scan list, communication
cycle time settings, etc.) to be backed up as a file to a Memory
Card in the CPU Unit. The data settings can also be restored into
the DeviceNet Unit from the Memory Card in the CPU Unit. Set-
ting data can be restored into a DeviceNet Unit simply by carry-
ing the Memory Card to the site if the device parameter file
prepared from the Configurator is saved to Memory Card from a
PLC.
Simple backup function Enables all setup data in the DeviceNet Units non-volatile mem-
ory (EEPROM), as well as all data in the CPU Unit, to be auto-
matically backed up to, restored from, or compared with a file in a
Memory Card mounted in the CPU Unit.
Note The simple backup function is supported only when
using a combination of a CS1-H CPU Unit with a
CS1W-DRM21-V1 DeviceNet Unit, or a CJ1-H CPU
Unit with a CJ1W-DRM21 DeviceNet Unit.

Allocations for remote I/O communications can be set in any order of node
addresses from the Configurator. Users can also set remote I/O communica-
tions connections.
Device (master/slave) registration, I/O allocations, and other operations are
especially easy to perform because of graphic operations, including dragging
and dropping icons.
Any of the following methods can be used to connect the Configurator to
DeviceNet. All the connection methods support the same online connection
functions.

Note 1. Master device parameters used in a scan list are created with either of the
following methods.
a) Using the Parameter Wizard
b) Setting all parameters
2. Connect only one Configurator to each Network.
3. Do not use the Configurator in a location with too much electromagnetic
noise, particularly when using a PCMCIA Card. If noise is too extreme, the
computer may run out-of-control, although there will be no negative effects
on the DeviceNet network even if noise causes the computer to run out-of-
control.
4. The only DeviceNet masters that can be handled by the Configurator are
OMRONs CS1W-DRM21(-V1), CJ1W-DRM21, CVM1-DRM21-V1, and

Etc.
3. Mount the Master and wire the network.
Treat as a CPU Bus Unit.
Can mount to a CPU Rack or Expansion Rack.
With fixed allocations: 3 Units max.
With user-set allocations: 16 Units max.
4. Connect a Programming Device to the PLC and turn ON the power supply
to the PLC.
5. Generate the I/O tables.
Note 1. A slave may not go online if the communications power supply is turned
ON after the slave is turned ON.
2. The communications power supply and slave power supply, the slave pow-
er supply and PLC power supply, or all three of these power supplies may
be turned ON simultaneously.
1-6-3 Creating Routing Tables
The DeviceNet Unit functions as a Communications Unit in the same way as a
SYSMAC LINK Unit, Controller Link Unit, and Ethernet Unit.
It is therefore necessary to create routing tables for the communications func-
tions to be used, as shown in the table below.
Note 1. If a local network table already exists in the CPU unit being used, the De-
viceNet Unit must be registered in that table.
2. The DeviceNet Unit must be registered in the local network table.
Refer to 6-3 Using FINS Message Communications for information on the
routing tables.
The routing tables are created using CX-Net inside the CX-Programmer.
Refer to the CX-Programmer Operation Manual (WS02-CXPC1-EV50)
(W446) for details.
Note 1. A local network table is sometimes necessary even when the DeviceNet
Unit is not operating across networks.
2. If you prepare a local network table inside the CPU Unit, be sure to register
the DeviceNet Unit.

3. Even if a local network table exists inside the CPU Unit, the 7-segment dis-
play of the DeviceNet Unit may indicate HC and FINS message/explicit
message communications may not be possible unless the DeviceNet Unit
is registered in the local network table.
1-6-4 Procedures Prior to Starting Communications
Using the Master Function
To use the master function, the Master Enable Switch (word n, bit 06) must be
turned ON from a Programming Device. Enable master communications
through CS1W-DRM21(-V1) properties if you are using a Configurator.
Note 1. Make sure the scan list is enabled when using the master function. This
will allow you to check whether slaves are online or not from the CPU Unit
so that you will be able to determine whether or not the DeviceNet is com-
municating properly.
2. Remote I/O communications with a specified slave can be turned OFF
(disconnected) by turning ON (1) the corresponding Disconnect/Connect
Switch (words n+6 to n+9) when a slave is replaced or is registered in the
scan list prior to being connected. These switches are cleared when the
power supply is turned OFF, however, so a bit must be turned back ON (1)
from the ladder program when the power turns ON for it to be valid again.
Fixed Allocations
Use the following procedure to use fixed allocations. Refer to 4-3 Fixed Alloca-
tions for details on fixed allocations.
1,2,3... 1. Turn ON the communications, slave, and PLC power supplies.
Note Turn ON the communications power supply before turning ON the
slave power supplies or the slaves may not go online.
2. Switch the CPU Unit to PROGRAM mode.
3. Check Unit Status 2 (word n+11, bit 03) from a Programming Device con-
nected to the CPU Unit to see if the master function is ON (enabled). If it
is enabled, skip step 4 below and proceed to step 5.
4. If the master function is OFF (disabled), turn ON the Master Enable Switch
(word n, bit 06) from a Programming Device connected to the CPU Unit.
Note Execute this only when master communications are turned OFF. (If
the Master Enable Switch is turned ON when master communica-
tions are ON, a Unit error will occur and a C2 error will be displayed
on the 7-segment display on the front panel.)
5. Turn ON the Master Fixed Allocation Area Setting 1 to 3 Switches (word n,
bits 8 to 10). Master remote I/O communications will begin with the scan
list disabled.
6. Turn ON the Scan List Enable Switch (word n, bit 00). Master remote I/O
communications will begin with the scan list enabled.
7. Switch the CPU Unit to RUN mode.
User-set Allocations Using Allocated DM Area Words
Use the following procedure to set allocations using the words allocated to the
Unit in the DM Area. Refer to 4-4 User-set Allocations for details on user-set
allocations.

tions are enabled, a Unit error will occur and a C2 error will be dis-
played on the 7-segment display on the front panel.)
5. Input data in advance into the Master User Allocation Setup Table (words
m+1 to m+6) and the Allocation Size Setup Table (specify the position in
words m+5 and m+6)
6. Turn ON the Master User-set Allocation Switch (word n, bit 11). Master re-
mote I/O communications will begin with the scan list enabled.
User-set Allocations Using the Configurator
Use the following procedure to set allocations using the Configurator. Refer to
DeviceNet Configurator Operation Manual for details on Configurator operat-
ing procedures
3. Create a network configuration file and device parameters file from the
Configurator. (Enable master communications in CS1W-DRM21(-V1)
properties at this time.)
4. Download the above files to the devices on the network. Remote I/O com-
munications will begin with the scan list enabled.
Using Slave Function
To use the slave function, the Slave Enable Switch (word n+1, bit 06) must be
turned ON from a Programming Device. Enable slave communications
through CS1W-DRM21(-V1)/CJ1W-DRM21 properties if you are using a Con-
figurator.
With fixed allocations or allocations set in the allocated DM Area words, slave
communications must be disabled prior to area allocation and must be
enabled following area allocation. The order of the procedure is thus Slave
Stop Switch (if slave communications are enabled), area allocation, and Slave
Enable Switch.
Note Slave communications must be disabled prior to area allocation when using
fixed allocations or allocations set in the allocated DM Area words, and the
settings must be read to the Unit when slave communications are enabled.
Allocations will not be valid if slave communications are enabled during area
allocation.
Fixed Allocations
Use the following procedure to use fixed allocations. Refer to 5-2 Fixed Alloca-
tions for details on fixed allocations.
44
1,2,3... 1. Switch the CPU Unit to PROGRAM mode.
nected to the CPU Unit to see if the slave function is OFF (disabled). If it is
disabled, skip step 3 below and proceed to step 4.
3. If slave communications are enabled, turn ON the Slave Stop Switch (word
n+1, bit 07).
4. Turn ON the Slave Fixed Allocation Area Settings 1 to 3 Switches (word
n+1, bits 8 to 10).
5. Turn ON the Slave Enable Switch (word n+1, bit 06) from a Programming
Device connected to the CPU Unit.
Note Execute this only when slave communications are turned OFF. (If the
Slave Enable Switch is turned ON when slave communications are
enabled, a Unit error will occur and a C2 error will be displayed on
the 7-segment display on the front panel.)
6. Switch the CPU Unit to RUN mode. Slave remote I/O communications will
begin.
User-set Allocations Using Allocated DM Area Words
Use the following procedure to set allocations using the words allocated to the
Unit in the DM Area. Refer to 5-3 User-set Allocations for details on user-set
allocations.
1,2,3... 1. Switch the CPU UNit to PROGRAM mode.
nected to the CPU Unit to see if the slave function is OFF (disabled). If it is
disabled, skip step 3 below and proceed to step 4.
3. If Slave is enabled, turn ON the Slave Stop Switch (word n+1, bit 07).
4. Input data in advance into the Slave User Allocation Setup Table (words
m+8 to m+13).
5. Turn ON the user Slave User-set Allocation Switch (word n+1, bit 11).

interface error, or routing table error.)
Correct the error and reset the Unit.
--- OFF Power isnt being supplied or the Unit is being reset.
NS Green ON The Unit is online with the network and remote I/O com-
munications have been established with a slave regis-
tered in the scan list or message communications have
been established.
Flashing The Unit is online with the network, but neither remote
I/O communications nor message communications have
been established. Either the scan list is being read, or
both remote I/O communications and message commu-
nications are disabled.
Red ON A fatal communications error has occurred. Network
communications are not possible.
(Node address duplicated or Bus Off error)
Flashing A non-fatal communications error has occurred. (Com-
munications error, setup error, or verification error)
--- OFF The Unit is not online with the network.
(There is no network power supply, the Unit is being
reset, a minor failure, or a sending error has occurred.)
52
2-1-3 Seven-Segment Display
In addition to the MS and NS indicators, DeviceNet Units have a 2-digit, 7-
segment display that normally indicates the master node address. When an
error occurs, the display will alternate between the error code and the node
address of the faulty slave.
There are dot indicators at the lower-right corner of each digit. The left dot
indicator shows whether or not the master is operating and whether the scan
list is enabled or disabled. The right dot indicator shows whether or not the
slave is operating.

The following diagram shows the alternating error code/ node address display.
The masters error code and masters node address will be displayed if an
error has occurred at the master.
There is no priority in the error codes; all errors that have occurred will be dis-
played in order. All error codes begin with letters, so they can be distinguished
from node addresses immediately.
Dot Indicators
The following table shows the functions of the dot indicators.
2-1-4 Switch Settings
Unit No. Switch Use this switch to set the unit number of the DeviceNet Unit as a CPU Bus
Unit. The unit number setting determines the CIO and DM area words allo-
cated to the Unit as software switches and the status area.
Setting method: One-digit hexadecimal
Setting range: 0 to F
Note 1. The unit number is set to 0 at the factory.
2. Any unit number from 0 to F can be set as long as it hasnt been set on
another CPU Bus Unit connected to the same PLC.
3. Use a small flat-blade screwdriver to turn the rotary switches; be careful
not to damage the switch.
4. Always turn OFF the PLC before changing the unit number setting.
5. If the unit number is the same as one set on another CPU Bus Unit con-
nected to the same PLC, a duplicate number error will occur in the PLC
and it wont be possible to start up the DeviceNet network.

Note 1. The node address is set to 63 at the factory.
2. Any node address from 0 through 63 can be set as long as it hasnt been
set on another slave node.
3. If the node address is the same as one set on another node, a node ad-
dress duplication error will occur and it wont be possible to start up net-
work communications.
4. Node address 0 cannot be used for FINS message communication. Use a
node address other than 0 for FINS message communication.
DIP Switch The DIP switch on the front of the DeviceNet Unit is used to set the baud rate,
whether communications will be continued or stopped when a communica-
tions error occurs, and whether to hold or clear the remote outputs when a
communications error occurs in the slave function.
The settings of the DIP switch pins are shown in the following table. All pins
are set to OFF at the factory.
Baud Rate
Pins 1 and 2 are used to set the baud rate as shown in the following table.
Note 1. Always turn OFF the PLC before changing the DIP switch settings.
2. Set the same baud rate on all of the nodes (Master and Slaves) in the Net-
work. Any slaves with baud rates different from the masters rate wont be
able to participate in communications and may cause a communications
error between nodes that have been set properly.

Continue/Stop Remote I/O Communications
When the DeviceNet Unit is used as a master, pin 3 is used to set whether or
not communications will stop after a communications error.
If pin 3 is ON, remote I/O communications will be stopped if one of the follow-
ing errors occurs.
Remote I/O Communications Error Flag (n+12, bit 02 is ON)
Send Timeout Flag (n+10, bit 08 is ON)
Network Power Error Flag (n+10, bit 07 is ON)
Remote I/O communications will remain stopped even if the error is cleared.
(Message communications and slave functions will continue.) To resume com-
munications, turn ON the Remote I/O Communications Start Bit (word n, bit
02) of Software Switches 1. Refer to 3-2 Allocated CIO Area Words for details.
Note The 7-segment display will show A0 when remote I/O communications stop.
Refer to SECTION 9 Troubleshooting and Maintenance.
If pin 3 is OFF, remote I/O communications will stop if a send timeout or net-
work power error occurs, but will restart automatically when the cause of the
error is cleared.
Hold/Clear Remote Outputs
When the DeviceNet Unit is used as a slave, pin 4 is used to set whether to
hold or clear remote outputs when a communications error occurs.
Note If the DeviceNet Unit is used as a slave, the 7-segment display will show L9
when remote I/O communications stop. Refer to SECTION 9 Troubleshooting
and Maintenance.
Communications

Allocated CIO Area Words Section 3-2
3-2 Allocated CIO Area Words
Data is stored at the offset positions shown in the figure below starting from
the first word allocated to the Unit in the CIO Area.
The first word can be calculated as follows from the unit number setting:
First word n = CIO 1,500 + (25 x unit number)
3-2-1 Software Switches 1 (Word n)
All switches execute some function when the user turns them ON. They turn
OFF automatically after the function has been executed. Once a function is
set by turning a switch ON (except for the switches listed below), it is saved
regardless of whether the power is turned OFF and ON again.
Remote I/O Communications Start Switch (bit 02, 03)
Remote I/O Communications Stop Switch (bit 04)
Note No functions other than master and slave communications are disabled by
stopping master or slave communications.
If multiple bits are turned ON simultaneously, the requests will generate errors
but they will not alter Unit operation. The corresponding error bits in the follow-
ing words will turn ON if a request made by a software switch ends in an error.

3-2-4 Disconnect/Connect Switches (Words n+6 to n+9)
One Disconnect/Connect Switch is allocated to each slave node address. If
the switch for a slave is turned ON, then remote I/O communications to that
slave will be temporarily stopped (i.e., it is disconnected from the network). A
communications error will occur at the end for any slave has been discon-
nected if the corresponding switch is turned ON during communications.
These switches are used primarily to replace slaves or to reserve a place for a
slave that will be added (when a Unit is registered in the scan list but not yet
connected). A communications error and verification error for the slave that
has been disconnected will not be generated at the master as long as the cor-
responding switch is ON.
Note These switches do not add or remove slaves from the registered scan list.
Remote I/O communications will restart if a user turns OFF a bit that is ON.
More than one of these switches may be turned ON at the same time. If the
switch for a slave that is not using remote I/O communications is turned ON, it
will be ignored.
A Unit that has been disconnected can still perform message communica-
tions.
Turning ON this bit does not effect the communications cycle time (except that
it increases blank time in the communications cycle).
Note All Disconnect/Connect Switches are cleared and return to OFF
when the power is turned OFF. If required, write the ladder program
to turn them back ON when the power is turned ON.

3-2-12 Normal Slave Table (Words n+20 to n+23)
This table indicates the slaves that are communicating normally with the mas-
ter. The bits correspond to node addresses. The bits for slaves for which nor-
mal I/O connections have been made are turned ON in this table. These are
not flags to show the remote I/O communications status.
In the following cases, the status of communications up to the most recent
status is saved and then status is cleared when communications are restarted
(i.e., when connection is made again).

under which the Master Unit is mounted.
Master Communications
Note 1. A CS/CJ-series DeviceNet Unit can function as either a master or slave in
remote I/O communications and it can even function as both a master and
a slave at the same time. Turn ON the Master Enable Switch (word n, bit
06) in the Software Switches in the words allocated in the CIO Area to set
the CS/CJ-series DeviceNet Unit to function as a master. Once this switch
is turned ON and master communications are enabled, the Unit will contin-
ue to perform master communications regardless of whether the power is
turned OFF and back ON again. Turn ON the Master Stop Switch (word n,
bit 07) to stop master communications. Master communications are the fo-
cus of this section.
2. In the following descriptions, a CS/CJ-series DeviceNet Unit set to function
as a master is referred to as a Master Unit and a CS/CJ-series DeviceNet
Unit set to function as a slave is referred to as a Slave Unit.
4-1-1 Allocations
All slaves are allocated words in the I/O memory of the CPU Unit to which the
Master Unit is mounted. They are allocated using one of the following meth-
ods:
1) Fixed allocations
2) User-set allocations

Fixed Allocations
Any one of the three areas below can be specified as the words allocated in
the CIO Area for fixed allocations. The output (OUT) block and the input (IN)
block are allocated strictly in order of node addresses in one of the areas
shown below.
Words are allocated to slaves starting from address 0 in the output (OUT) and
IN blocks. Each address is allocated at least one byte (rightmost).
More than one word is allocated for each slave (according to its node
address) with more than16 I/O points.
The rightmost byte of the word is allocated to each slave that has less
than 16 I/O points.
User-set Allocations
The following methods are used for user-set allocations:
Using a Master User Allocations Table (allocated DM Area words)
Using the Configurator
Using the Master User
Allocations Table
In the Master User Allocations Table, set the areas and first words for the out-
put block (OUT 1) and the input block (IN 1) and set the area and first word for
the Allocation Size Setup Table. In the Allocation Size Setup Table, set the
allocation sizes for the slave input and output blocks. Each slave can be allo-
cated two blocks, OUT 1 and IN 1, according to the settings in these tables.

2. Turn ON the communications, slave, and PLC power supplies.
4. Perform the following steps to allocate areas, create scan lists, and down-
load the settings to the nodes.
a) Create a network configuration offline on the Configurator.
b) Enable master communications in the CS1W-DRM21(-V1) properties.
c) Create master device parameters.
d) Save the data as a network component file.

7. Read the network components using the Configurator.
8. Save the components as a network component file using the Configurator.
Note 1. Remote I/O communications with a specified slave can be stopped to ef-
fectively disconnect the slave from the network by turning ON the Discon-
103
Scan List Section 4-2
nect/Connect Switch for that slave (words n+6 to n+9). This can be done
when a slave is replaced or to register a slave in the scan list in prepara-
tions to connect it to the network at a later time. The Disconnect/Connect
Switches, however, are cleared when the power supply is turned OFF, so
the bit must be turned back ON from the ladder program after the power
turns ON in order for it to remain effective.
2. Use Configurator Ver. 2.10 or higher for the CJ1W-DRM21.
4-2 Scan List
A scan list is used to register the slaves with which the Master Unit communi-
cates in DeviceNet remote I/O communications. It is the basis on which the
Master Unit communicates with slaves.
The Master Unit does not contain a scan list by default. The CS/CJ-series
DeviceNet Unit, however, has a default setting that allows it to communicate
with all slaves even with the scan list disabled, but this operating mode should
not be used for normal operation. Always create a scan list prior to operating
the Unit.
Scan List Contents The contents of the scan list is listed in the following table. When a Master
Unit goes online, it compares each of these items with the slaves that are
actually connected to the network. The items that are compared, however, will
depend on the allocation method that is used.

Scan List Section 4-2
Creating the Scan List The way that a scan list is prepared varies with the allocation method as
shown below.
Note 1. Be sure to create a scan list before starting actual system operation.
2. It is still possible to communicate with Units (with the scan list disabled) if
a scan list is not created when fixed allocations areas 1 to 3 are used. This
may result in faulty operation because the Master Unit will communicate
with slaves even if they do not start up due to problems, such as equipment
failure if there is no a scan list.
Scan List Enabled and Scan List Disabled
The scan list must be made. The scan list modes are described here.
Scan List Enabled (Used
for Actual Operation)
Remote I/O communications are performed according to the registered scan
list and only with slaves that are on the list. A verification error occurs (word
n+12, bit 00 in the status area turns ON) if a slave registered on the scan list is
not present on the network, if a slave did not start up when remote I/O com-
munications started, or if the number of I/O points did not match the number
registered.
Scan List Disabled (Used
when Changing System
Components)
Remote I/O communications can be performed with fixed allocations instead
of a scan list in order to change a system component. Do not operate without
a scan list during actual system operation. Use this mode only to replace a
Master Unit or to change a system component (change a connected slave or
a node address).
Note a) To disable the scan list, turn ON the Scan List Clear Switch (word
n, bit 01) during remote I/O communications with the scan list en-
abled (with fixed allocations, user-set allocations using allocated
DM Area words, or user-set allocations using the Configurator). In
all these cases, remote I/O communications are executed using
the fixed allocations area that was last used when the list was dis-
abled. All slaves are targeted for remote I/O communications with
the scan list disabled.
b) Slaves that are connected to the network while communications
are in progress are also targeted for communications. Errors can-
not be confirmed, however, even if there are slaves present that
did start up due to problems such as equipment failure because
there is no scan list available to check communications against.
The communications cycle time will also be significantly longer
than the calculated value.
c) The scan list is automatically enabled when user-set allocations
are set using the allocated DM Area words or the Configurator. If
the list is subsequently cleared using a software switch, fixed allo-
cations (1 to 3) will be used for remote I/O communications when
the scan list is disabled. Make sure the system has stopped before

you disable the scan list with a Master Unit that is set for user-set
allocations. Particularly when multiple Master Units are connected
to a single network, communications will not be performed suc-
cessfully if even one Master Unit on the network is operating with
the scan list disabled. Once the list is disabled, the user-set allo-
cations data registered in the Master Unit is lost.
Backing Up the Scan List
A scan list must be created to switch the DeviceNet Unit to operation with the
scan list disabled or to replace a DeviceNet Unit. It is important to back up the
list using one of the following methods:
Fixed Allocations or User-
set Allocations in
Allocated DM Area Words
Save the scan list as a backup file on Memory Card by turning ON the Setup
File Backup Switch (word n+1, bit 15) in the words allocated in the CIO Area.
User-set Allocations from
the Configurator
Save the scan list as a backup file on Memory Card or save it either as a net-
work component file and master parameter file using the Configurator. In the
preceding cases, turn ON the Setup File Restore Switch (word n+1, bit 14) in
the words allocated in the CIO Area to input setup data, such as the scan list
backed up on Memory Card, into a DeviceNet Unit.
4-3 Fixed Allocations
4-3-1 Allocated Words
Words in the CS/CJ-series DeviceNet CIO Area in the CPU Unit are allocated.
An area of words can be selected from one of three fixed allocation areas.
Use a Software Switch to select the allocation area.
Each area is comprised of an OUT area that is used to write output data to
slaves and an IN area that is used for input from slaves in remote I/O commu-
nications.
A maximum of 3 DeviceNet Units can be included as masters in a single PLC
because the three allocation areas above are set individually for fixed alloca-
tions. The default setting is fixed allocations area 1.
Each OUT/IN area is allocated to a slave according to its node address as
shown below. Allocated words are determined by the node address in fixed
allocations as shown.

Note More than one Master Unit can be included in a single PLC with fixed alloca-
tions, as shown below (3 Units max.).
4-3-2 Procedure
Step 1: Place the CPU Unit in PROGRAM mode.
Step 2: Turn ON the
Master Enable Switch
If the master communications have been disabled (if Master Function Enable
Flag (word n+11, bit 03) is OFF), turn ON the Master Enable Switch (word n,
bit 06) to enable master communications. Once Master communications have
been enabled by turning this switch ON, it will not change even if the power is
turned OFF and back ON again.
Note If the master communications are enabled (if Master Function Enable
Flag (word n+11, bit 03) is ON), skip this step and go onto the next
step. (If the Master Enable Switch is turned ON when master com-
munications are enabled, a Unit error will occur and a C2 error will be
displayed on the 7-segment display on the front panel.)
Step 3: Turn ON the Scan
List Clear Switch
If the Unit is in the Scan List Enable mode (if Scan List Disabled Flag (word
n+11, bit 04) is OFF), turn ON the Scan List Clear Switch (word n, bit 01) to
change to the Scan List Disable mode.
Note If the Unit is already in the Scan List Disable mode (if the Scan List
Disabled Flag (word n+11, bit 04) is ON), skip this step and go onto
the next step. (If the Scan List Clear Switch is turned ON when the
Unit is in the Scan List Disable mode, a Unit error will occur and a C2
error will be displayed on the 7-segment display on the front panel.)
Step 4: Select Fixed
Allocations Area 1 to 3
Turn ON the Master Fixed Allocation Setting 1 to 3 Switch (word n, bits 08 to
10) in the Software Switches in the words allocated in the CIO Area to select
the fixed allocations area from1 to 3. One word will be allocated per node
address in order of node addresses for the output (OUT) block and one word
for the input (IN) block in the CS/CJ-series DeviceNet CIO Area.
First word n = CIO 1500 + (25 x unit number)
Step 5: Turn ON the Scan
List Enable Switch
Remote I/O communications will start with the scan list disabled after a fixed
allocations area has been selected. Check to see if communication is pro-
ceeding normally with each slave, and then turn ON the Scan List Enable
Switch (word n, bit 00) to communicate with the scan list enabled.

4-3-3 Changing System Components
The scan list must be cleared in the following situations:
Adding a slave
Removing a slave
Changing a node address
Turn OFF the Scan List Clear Switch (word n, bit 01) to clear the scan list.
Remote I/O communications will be performed with the scan list disabled
using fixed allocations in the fixed allocations area that was used the last time
the list was disabled. Make sure that communications with all slaves are oper-
ating properly after the scan list is cleared and the system component is
changed, and then turn ON the Scan List Enable Switch (word n, bit 00) again
to register all slaves currently online in the scan list. Remote I/O communica-
tions will continue during this time with the scan list enabled.

User-set Allocations Section 4-4
4-4 User-set Allocations
With a CS/CJ-series DeviceNet Unit, remote I/O communications slaves can
be allocated in any area (CIO, WR, HR, DM, or EM) using one of the following
methods.
Setting through the allocated DM Area words (Master User Allocations
Table)
Setting through the Configurator
User-set Allocations Methods
Note Functions will vary as shown below depending on whether allocations are set
through the allocated DM Area words (Master User Allocations Table) or
through the Configurator.
Words are always allocated to slaves in order of ascending node ad-
dresses when allocations are set with the allocated DM Area words.
The order can be determined by the user when the Configurator is
used. (However, even when using the allocated DM Area words, nodes
do not have to be allocated words, reducing the number of words re-
quired.)
Only two blocks (OUT 1 and IN 1) can be allocated when setting are
made with the allocated DM Area words area, but there are four blocks
(OUT 1/2 and IN 1/2) available with the Configurator.

OUT 1, IN 1, OUT 2, and IN 2 can be cre-
ated anywhere in the above areas.
Block allocation order Any order
Node address order Allocations must be in order of node
addresses (0 to 63 in ascending order)
Note 1. Not all nodes need to be allo-
cated, reducing the number of
words required.
2. Node addresses do not have
to correspond between blocks.
Any order
Note 1. Node addresses do not have
to correspond between blocks.
2. One node address cannot be
allocated to different blocks.
Start bit for allocations All allocations start from bit 00 (Cannot
start from bit 08. All allocations are in 1
word units.)
Allocations can start from bit 00 or bit 08.
Allocations starting from bit 08 are in
1-byte units only.

The first bit for node allocations is always bit 00 when setting alloca-
tions with the allocated DM Area words, but can be either bit 00 or bit
08 with the Configurator. (Allocations for slaves with two bytes or more
cannot start at bit 08.
Setting through the Allocated DM Area Words (Master User Allocations Table)
All slaves are allocated words in order of node addresses in two blocks: OUT
block 1 and IN block 1.
The block allocation order and block allocation areas can be set. Node
addresses in each block are allocated words in ascending order from 0 to 63.
Node addresses that are not allocated are skipped (not allocated words).
Each address is allocated at least one byte (rightmost byte, 1 word, or multiple
words).

Procedure Step 1: Turn ON the Master Enable Switch
Make sure that master communications have disabled by checking to see if
Master Enable Function Flag (word n+11, bit 03) is OFF and then turn ON the
Master Enable Switch (word n+14, bit 06) to enable master communications.
Once master communications have been enabled by turning this switch ON,
they will remain enabled even if the power is turned OFF and back ON again.
Note Do not turn ON the Master Enable Switch unless master communi-
cations are stopped. (If the Master Enable Switch is turned ON when
master communications are enabled, a Unit error will occur and a C5
error will be displayed on the 7-segment display on the front panel.)
Step 2: Setting the Master User Allocations Table
This table specifies the area and first word for each block and the area and
first word for the Allocation Size Setup Table.
Master User Allocations Table
Areas and Word Ranges for OUT Block 1, IN Block 1, and the Alloca-
tion Size Setup Table
Step 3: Setting the Allocation Size Setup Table
Specify the area and first word in this table at words m+5 and m+6. IN and
OUT sizes for all nodes are set here as shown in the table below. The setting
range for each node is 0 to 200 bytes (0 to 100 words), although actual size
depends on the allocated slaves. The maximum size per block is 500 words. If
the size set here is larger than 1 byte, the start bit for all slaves is bit 00 and
size is allocated in ascending node address order starting from the beginning
of the OUT 1 and IN 1 areas in word units. If the size is set at 0 bytes for a
node address, it is skipped the words are allocated to the next address.

Step 4: Turn ON the Slave User Allocations Switch
Turn ON the Slave User allocations Switch (word n, bit 11). This will make the
DeviceNet Unit read allocation results data for the slaves above from the CPU
Unit and create a scan list based on data for slaves that are actually online
prior to starting remote I/O communications with the scan list enabled.
Note The Master User Allocations Switch not only reads slave allocation
data, but it also enables the scan list.
Note 1. Any order can be used for the OUT 1 and IN 1 blocks.
2. Node addresses do not have to correspond between output block 1 and in-
put block 1.
3. The start bit for node addresses must always be bit 00, and never bit 08.

4. Multiple masters cannot share the same slave.
5. Be sure to use user-set allocations and operate the Master Unit with the
scan list enabled if multiple masters are connected to a single network.
Communications will not be possible if there is more than one master with
the scan list disabled connected to a network.
Changing System Components
In the following situations, the table must be reset, the Master User Alloca-
tions Switch (word n, bit 11) turned ON, and the scan list recreated:
Adding a slave
Removing a slave
Changing a node address
Changing a node allocation
There is no need to clear the scan list.

Procedure
Step 1
Set the area, start word, and words allocated for each block using the Config-
urator.
Step 2
Allocate words to all node addresses in each block as shown below using the
Configurator.
Each address is allocated at least one byte (rightmost or leftmost
byte).
Note a) The order of all blocks can be set as desired by the user.
b) Node addresses do not have to correspond between an output
block and input block.
c) The same node address cannot be allocated more than once.

d) The start bit for node addresses can be bit 00 or bit 08. If it is bit
08 however, 2 or more bytes cannot be allocated as shown below.
e) Multiple masters cannot share the same slave.
You can determine whether there are duplicate node addresses in the
I/O allocations (scan lists) that were created simply by conducting a
master parameter file duplicate check from the Configurator.
f) Be sure to use user-set allocations and operate with the scan list
enabled if multiple masters are connected to a single network. A
Bus OFF errors will occur if multiple fixed allocations masters op-
erating with the scan list disabled are present on a single network.
g) Multiple Master Units can be included in a single PLC as shown
below using user-set allocations (16 Units max.).
Note Use Configurator Ver. 2.10 or higher for the CJ1W-DRM21.

Starting and Stopping Remote I/O Communications Section 4-5
Configurator Setting Methods
Refer to the DeviceNet Configurator Operation Manual (W382) for setting
methods.
4-5 Starting and Stopping Remote I/O Communications
4-5-1 Starting Remote I/O Communications
Remote I/O communications start automatically after the power is turned ON
or the Unit is restarted.
The I/O Data Communications Flag (word n+12, bit 15) is turned ON when
remote I/O communications is started with at least one slave.
4-5-2 Stopping Remote I/O Communications
Remote I/O communications stop under the following user-controlled condi-
tions. Message communications can still be performed when the remote I/O
communications stop.
Stop Communications
With All Slaves
Remote I/O communications stop when the Remote I/O Communications
Stop Switch (word n, bit 04) is turned ON.
Stop Communications
With a Specified Slave
Remote I/O communications stop when the Disconnect/Connect Switch for
the desired slave (words n+6 to n+9) is turned ON. (Units are disconnected
from remote I/O communication when the Disconnect/Connect Switch is
turned ON.)
Note The communications cycle time is not shorter even though a slave has been
disconnected from remote I/O communications by turning ON the Disconnect/
Connect Switch. (Blank time in the communications cycle will only be
increased.)
4-5-3 Restarting Remote I/O Communications
Remote I/O communications restart under the following conditions.
Restart Communications
with All Slaves
Remote I/O communications restart when the Remote I/O Communications
Start Switch (word n, bit 02 or 03) is turned ON. (Only communications with
slaves with the Disconnect/Connect Switch turned OFF will be restarted.)
Restart Communications
with Specified Slave
Remote I/O communications restart when the Disconnect/Connect Switch for
the desired slave (words n+6 to n+9) is turned OFF. (A slave will participate in
remote I/O communications while the Disconnect/Connect Switch is OFF.)
4-6 Example of Ladder Programming for Remote I/O
Communications
When writing ladder programming for remote I/O communications, make sure
it performs I/O processing with a Slave under the following conditions:
The I/O Data Communications Flag (word n+12, bit 15) is ON.
The Unit Error Flag (word n+10, bit 00) is OFF.
Example: There is no jump and slave I/O is processed when the JMP(004)
instruction input condition is ON in the following instructions. There is a jump
and slave I/O is not processed when the JMP(004) instruction input condition
is OFF.
121
Example of Ladder Programming for Remote I/O Communications Section 4-6
Note Even if there is a communications error with the slave, the slave input data is
saved in the allocated area.
To prevent operating errors, make the ladder program so that no slave I/O pro-
cessing will occur when the Unit Error Flag (word n+10, bit 00) is ON.

5-1 Slave Remote I/O Communications
A CS/CJ-series DeviceNet Unit can function as a Slave Unit in remote I/O
communications and a single CS/CJ-series DeviceNet Unit can function as
both a Master Unit and a Slave Unit. This section describes Slave communi-
cations.
Slave Communications
Note 1. In the following descriptions, the areas used to transfer data from the mas-
ter to the slaves are called OUT areas and the areas used to transfer data
from the slaves to the master are called the IN areas.
2. In the following descriptions, a CS/CJ-series DeviceNet Unit set to function
as a master is referred to as a Master Unit and a CS/CJ-series DeviceNet
Unit set to function as a slave is referred to as a Slave Unit.
5-1-1 Allocation Methods
All slaves are allocated words in the I/O memory of the CPU Unit to which the
Master Unit is mounted. They are allocated using one of the following meth-
ods:
1) Fixed allocations
2) User-set allocations

5-2 Fixed Allocations
5-2-1 Allocated Words
Words in the CS/CJ-series DeviceNet CIO Area in the CPU Unit are allocated.
Words can be selected from one of three fixed allocation areas. Use a Soft-
ware Switch to select the allocation area.
Each area is comprised of an OUT area that is used to write data to the mas-
ter IN area and an IN area that is used for inputs from the master OUT area in
A maximum of 3 DeviceNet Units can be included as slaves in a single PLC
because the three allocation areas above are set individually for fixed alloca-
tions. The default setting is fixed allocations area 1.
5-2-2 Procedure
Step 1: Stop Slave
Communications
If the Unit is already functioning as a Slave Unit, turn ON the Slave Stop
Switch (word n+1, bit 07) to stop slave communications. This step is not nec-
essary if slave communications have already stopped.
Step 2: Select a Fixed
Allocation Area
Turn ON one of the Slave Fixed Allocation Setting Switches (1 to 3: word n+1,
bits 08 to 10) in the allocated CIO Area words to select a fixed allocation area
between 1 and 3. One words is allocated for the output (OUT) area from the
Slave Unit to the master and another word is allocated for the input (IN) area
from the master to the Slave Unit in the CS/CJ-series DeviceNet CIO Area, as
shown below.
First word n = CIO 1500 + (25 x unit number)
Step 3: Turn ON the Slave
Enable Switch
Turn ON the Slave Enable Switch (word n+1, bit 06). This will allocated the
fixed allocation areas as slave areas and the DeviceNet Unit will start slave
remote I/O communications. Slave communications will run automatically
after that whenever the power is turned ON.

Overview Section 6-1
6-1 Overview
Message communications enable messages to be set between nodes on a
DeviceNet network when required by system conditions. The messages can
be sent between PLCs, between an OMRON PLC and a master made by
another company, or between slaves. They can be used to send/receive data;
read time data, error histories, and other data; or control operation, e.g., by
force-setting/resetting bits.
There are two types of messages: FINS messages and explicit messages.

Note If only the message communications function is being used and the remote
I/O communications function is not being used, message communications are
possible even if the master function is disabled. In this case, it is not neces-
sary to register a scan list.

Note 1. The DeviceNet Unit must be registered in the local network routing table of
the CS/CJ-series PLC when two or more Communications Units (including
the DeviceNet Unit) are mounted to a CS/CJ-series PLC. The commands
will not be sent if the Unit is not registered in the routing tables.
2. For DeviceNet networks connected to a CS/CJ-series DeviceNet Unit,
message communications can be conducted between networks, including
other DeviceNet networks as well as Controller Link, SYSMAC LINK, and
Ethernet networks. Up to three levels of networks can be crossed. Routing
tables (containing local network tables and relay network tables) must be
registered in the CPU Units of each PLC on the network.
Note FINS commands sent and received by the CS/CJ-series DeviceNet
Unit include commands addressed to the CS/CJ-series CPU Unit
and commands addressed to the CS/CJ-series DeviceNet Unit.
FINS message communications is possible between two PLCs with CS1W-
DRM21(-V1) or CJ1W-DRM21 DeviceNet Units.
FINS messages cannot be sent or received for PLCs with C200H-series
DeviceNet Master Units (C200HW-DRM21-V1) or CVM1/CV-series
DeviceNet Master Units (CVM1-DRM21-V1). Explicit messages, however, can
be received from these PLCs.
The following table outlines which CPU Unit support for FINS message com-
munications.

Sending FINS Message Communications
Receiving FINS Message Communications
Note C200H-series DeviceNet Master Units (C200H-DRM21-V1) and CVM1/CV-
series DeviceNet Master Units (CVM1-DRM21-V1) both support FINS mes-
sage communications but it is executed by a special OMRON method. With
this CS/CJ-series DeviceNet Unit (CS1W-DRM21(-V1) or CJ1W-DRM21), the
standard message protocol for DeviceNet (i.e., explicit messages) has been
used for FINS communications. For this reason, FINS communications is not
possible between CS/CJ-series DeviceNet Units (CS1W-DRM21(-V1) or
CJ1W-DRM21) and C200H-series DeviceNet Master Units (C200H-DRM21-
V1) or CVM1/CV-series DeviceNet Master Units (CVM1-DRM21-V1).
6-1-3 Explicit Message Communications
Service requests can be sent to C200H I/O Link Units and other OMRON
slaves, PLCs with CS/CJ-series DeviceNet Units, and DeviceNet masters and
slaves made by other manufacturers using explicit messages defined for
DeviceNet.
Service requests to read/write CPU Unit status I/O memory can also be
received from PLCs with C200H-series DeviceNet Master Units (C200HW-
DRM21-V1), PLCs with CVM1/CV-series DeviceNet Master Units (CVM1-
DRM21-V1), PLCs with CS/CJ-series DeviceNet Units, and DeviceNet mas-
ters made by other manufacturers using explicit messages.

Note This CS/CJ-series DeviceNet Unit (CS1W-DRM21(-V1) or CJ1W-DRM21)
contains a PLC Object so that the I/O memory of the CPU Unit of the
DeviceNet Unit can be read/written from other devices. The C200HW-DRT21
I/O Link Unit also contains a PLC Object so that the I/O memory of the CPU
Unit of the I/O Link Unit can be read/written from other devices. The C200HW-

6-1-5 Message Communications Error Indications
There are two ways to obtain information on communications errors that occur
in message communications: 1) Using the error history in the DeviceNet Unit
and 2) Using DeviceNet Unit displays, indicators, and Master Status Areas.
1,2,3... 1. Each time a communications error occurs, an error code is placed in an er-
ror record in the error history kept in the RAM of the DeviceNet Unit. Up to
96 records can be stored in the error history. The time and data the record
occurred is also recorded.
The error history can be read or cleared from the CPU Unit by sending an
FINS command to the DeviceNet Unit (Error History Read/Clear). The con-
tents of the error history can also be monitored from the Configurator.
2. The MS and NS indicators and the 7-segment display on the front panel of
the DeviceNet Unit can be used together with the Master Status Area 1 in
the CPU Unit to obtain information on a communications error that has oc-
curred. This information can be used as the basis for troubleshooting.

The response monitoring time for DeviceNet Units during explicit message
communications (the interval the explicit connection is open) can be set
from the Configurator for each device. (The settings for all devices can be
stored in the DeviceNet Unit. This is called the Message Monitoring Timer
List.)

6-1-6 Message Monitoring Timer
A message monitoring timer monitors responses for the DeviceNet Unit. A
timer can be set for each device that will be communicated with (each mes-
sage destination).
Message monitoring timers are supported for both explicit message and FINS
message communications. The timers can be set with version 2 or higher of
the DeviceNet Configurator. The default setting is 2 seconds (2,000 ms). The
setting range is 500 to 30,000 ms.
If the response from the remote communications device (message destina-
tion) is slow, the timer setting must be increased. In particular, responses take
time in FINS message communications that cross different network layers, so
this setting must be increased. The next message cannot be sent to the same
communications device during the response waiting time, so the setting
should not be set too high.
The DeviceNet Unit uses this timer to monitor message timeouts. The CPU
Unit performs the monitoring based on the response monitoring time for
CMND, SEND(090), and RECV instructions. There will be no effect, therefore,
if either the message monitoring timer or the response monitoring time for
CMND/SEND/RECV instructions setting only is increased or decreased. Both
must be increased or decreased for there to be an effect.
Set the response monitoring time for the CMND, SEND(090), and RECV
instructions the same as or longer than the message monitoring timer, i.e.,
CMND, SEND(090), RECV instructions message monitoring timer.
If a lot of timeouts occur, maintain this relationship but lengthen the time for
both.
Note When performing remote programming or monitoring from the CX-Program-
mer (scheduled to be supported by version 2.1 and later), set the message
monitoring timer in the CS/CJ-series DeviceNet Unit mounted to the PLC con-
nected to the CX-Programmer to at least 20 s (20,000 ms). This setting is
required only for the Unit that will perform remote programming.

Note 1. The 7-segment display alternately displays the error and the master node
address where the error occurred.
2. The send response message or reception response message will be de-
stroyed if any of the following occur:
If any communications instructions (SEND(090), RECV(098), or
CMND) are executed from the PLC at intervals less than the message
communications time.
If messages are received from other nodes at intervals less than the
message communications time.
Be sure that the interval between sending messages (i.e., the interval for
executing communications instructions from the PLC) and the interval for
receiving messages at any one node are longer than the message com-
munications time. Refer to 8-2 Message Communications for details on the
message communications time.
6-2 FINS Commands and Responses
6-2-1 FINS Communications
The FINS communication protocol was developed by OMRON for use with
factory automation control devices. FINS communications enable PLC mem-
ory read/write and operation control without extensive programming in the
user program in the PLC. FINS communications use an independent system
of addresses that does not rely on the addresses used in the DeviceNet net-
work. This enables communications not only with nodes on the DeviceNet
network, but also with devices and PLCs connected via other FA networks,
such as the SYSMAC NET and SYSMAC LINK Networks.

6-2-2 Sending/Receiving FINS Command/Responses
FINS commands are sent using the CMND(490) instruction for CS/CJ-series
PLCs. Send/receive FINS commands and responses and the data formats
used are illustrated in the following diagram. Unless otherwise specified, all
data is hexadecimal.
Command Codes Command codes are represented by a 2-byte hexadecimal code. FINS com-
mands always begin with a 2-byte command code and any parameters that
are required follow the command code.
Response Codes Response codes are represented by a 2-byte hexadecimal code that indicates
the results of command execution. The first byte provides the main response
code (MRES), which classifies the results, and the second byte provides the
sub-response code (SRES), which provides details on the results.

Using FINS Message Communications Section 6-3
6-3 Using FINS Message Communications
There are two instructions that can be executed to send and receive data from
CS/CJ-series CPU Units: SEND(090) and RECV(098). There is another
instruction that can be executed to send any FINS command: CMND(490).
6-3-1 Setting Node Addresses
Set the nodes for FINS message communications to node addresses other
than 0. Node address 0 has a special meaning (local node) in message com-
munications. If 0 is set as a node address for the Unit, message communica-
tions will not be possible.
6-3-2 Creating Routing Tables
The DeviceNet Unit functions as a Communications Unit in the same way as the
SYSMAC LINK Unit, Controller Link Unit, and Ethernet Unit.
It is therefore necessary to create routing tables for the communications func-
tions to be used, as shown in the table below.
Note 1. If a local network table already exists in the CPU unit being used, the De-
viceNet Unit must be registered in that table.
2. The DeviceNet Unit must be registered in the local network table.
3. In all cases other than the following two exceptions, a local network table
must be made, and the DeviceNet Unit must be registered in it.
a) When there is only one DeviceNet Unit.
b) When only multiple DeviceNet Units are mounted, with no remote I/O
communications.
4. A local network table is sometimes necessary even when the DeviceNet
Unit is not operating across networks.
5. If you prepare a local network table inside the CPU Unit, be sure to register
the DeviceNet Unit.
6. Even if a local network table exists inside the CPU Unit, the 7-segment dis-
play of the DeviceNet Unit may indicate HC and FINS message/explicit
message communications may not be possible unless the DeviceNet Unit
is registered in the local network table.

Routing Tables
The routing tables register the communications path from a Communications
Unit on the local PLC, such as a DeviceNet Unit, Controller Link Unit, SYS-
MAC LINK Unit, or Ethernet Unit, to the network to which the remote PLC is
connected. The routing tables are made up of two tables, the local network
table and the relay network table, as described below.
Local Network Tables The local network table lists the unit numbers of the Communications Units
mounted to the PLC and the addresses of the Networks to which each Unit
belongs. If multiple Communications Units are mounted to one PLC CPU Unit,
the local network table is used to distinguish between network addresses.
The following type of table is used to show which Communications Unit data
must be sent through to reach a destination network address, when sending
data to a network address from one PLCs CPU Unit.
Local network: The address (1 to 127) of the network to which the Communi-
cations Unit belongs.
CPU Bus Units unit number: The unit number of the CPU Bus Unit.
Example
Local Network Table
The unit number of the DeviceNet Unit as a CPU Bus Unit is the number set
on the rotary switches on the front panel (0 to 15). The network address is the
address of the Network to which the CPU Bus Unit is connected (1 to 127).
The network address is specified when this local network table for the routing
table is created.

Relay Network Tables Relay network tables show the destination network (final network) and the
network and node address of the first relay point on the way to that network
(the first point to which communications are sent). The relay points are fol-
lowed on the way to the final network.
Final network address: The address of the final network (1 to 127).
Relay network address: The address of the network to which the first relay
point belongs (1 to 127).
Relay node address: The node address of the first relay point.
Procedure for Creating the Routing Table
Use the CX-Net function for creating/sending routing tables in the CX-Pro-
grammer, with the following procedure.
1. Select Start/Program/Omron/CX-Server/CX-Net Network Configura-
tion Tool to start the CX-Net.
2. Select Edit/FINS Local from the Routing Table Menu. The following PLC
Routing Table Window will appear.
3. Click on the Table View Tab. A table like that shown below will appear.
Final Network Address Relay Network Address Relay Node Address
152
4. Use the left-side table to create the local network table. Input the unit num-
bers and corresponding local network addresses.
5. Use the right-side table to create the relay network table. Input the final net-
work addresses and corresponding relay network addresses and relay
node addresses.
6. Save the finished routing table.
7. Go online, then load and send the routing table.
Note Use CX-Programmer Ver. 2.1 or higher to register the DeviceNet Unit in the
routing tables. Actually, registration is possible using versions prior to CX-Pro-
grammer Ver. 2.0, but DeviceNet will not be displayed in the list of network
types when creating the routing tables with CX-Net. In this case, select one of
the network types that are displayed (CLK, SLK, etc.). This will enable the
DeviceNet to be registered in the routing table.

Note Explicit messages can be sent to OMRON slaves and DeviceNet devices
made by other manufacturers by setting the FINS command code to 28 01.
When this is done, set the response monitoring time in C+5 to at least the
value set for the message monitoring timer (default: 2 s). If it is set to less than
the value for the message monitoring timer (default:2 s), communications may
be busy even if the next command is executed after the first one times out.
6-3-5 Using SEND(090), RECV(098), and CMND(490)
SEND(090), RECV(098), and CMND(490) instructions normally use an AND
of the Network Enabled Flag in the CPU Unit (A20200 to A2020007 corre-
sponding to ports 0 to 7) and the Online Flag (word n+11, bit 00) (or the Mes-
sage Communications Permitted Flag (word n+24, bit 12)) for the DeviceNet
Unit.
Note The Online Flag and the Message Communication Permitted Flag
perform the same operation.
or
Communications Flags
Communications Flag Operation
The Network Enabled Flag turns OFF when instructions are being sent or
received (from when the instruction is issued until the response is
received) and turns ON when the execution has been completed, whether
normally or with an error.
The Network Error Flag maintains its status until the next send or receive
is executed.
The Network Error Flag turns OFF when the next communications
instruction is executed, regardless of whether the previous execution
ended with an error.

ted Flag and the NS indicators on the front of the DeviceNet Unit is shown
in the following table.
Communications Instructions Completion Codes
The status at the completion of the execution of network communications
instructions is shown at the words indicated in the following table, as FINS
completion codes. During execution of the instructions the status will be 00 or
$0000 and this will be reflected at the end of the execution of the network
communications instruction.
Note For the CS/CJ-series, the completion codes are stored as 2 bytes of
data (1 word) upon completion of the execution of SEND(090),
RECV(098), and CMND(490). These codes are the same as the re-
sponse codes for FINS commands. The first byte of the completion
code is placed in bits 08 to 15 and the second byte is placed in bits
00 to 07.

Sending Explicit Messages Section 6-4
When connecting networks, routing tables must be registered for the PLC
CPU Units on all networks.
When connecting two or more communication units (including the DeviceNet
Unit) to a CS/CJ-series CPU Unit, the DeviceNet Unit must be registered in
the CS/CJ-series PLC CPU Unit routing table (for the local network table
only). Commands cannot be executed if the DeviceNet Unit is not registered.
6-4 Sending Explicit Messages
CS/CJ-series DeviceNet Units can send explicit messages. FINS command
headers are attached to explicit messages and sent. Explicit messages can
be sent to the following destinations.
Masters or slaves made by other manufacturers
Other PLCs with a CS/CJ-series DeviceNet Unit.
PLCs (Slaves) with C200H I/O Link Units (See note).
Note Only reading and writing I/O memory is possible for PLCs with

6-4-1 Sending Explicit Messages
The FINS command code 28 01 can be used to send explicit DeviceNet mes-
sages to OMRON slaves and DeviceNet devices made by other manufactur-
ers. The use of explicit messages is illustrated in the following diagram.
The local DeviceNet Unit is specified as the destination in the communica-
tions instruction in the PLCs user program (not the OMRON Special Slave or
DeviceNet device made by another manufacturer), and the node address of
the actual destination (i.e., the Slave or Master made by another manufac-
turer) is specified in the command data for the explicit message send com-
mand.

Parameters Destination node address (command): The node address of the destination
of the explicit message. (The node address of the local DeviceNet Unit is
specified in the control data for the CMND(490), but the node address of the
actual destination is specified here in the FINS command.)
Service code (command, response): A service code defined for DeviceNet.
In a normal response, bit 15 of the service code specified in the command will
be turned ON and returned. In an error response, 94 Hex will always be
returned.
Class ID (command): The class ID of the destination of the explicit message.
Instance ID (command): The instance ID of the destination of the explicit
message.
Service data (command, response): The data defined for the services
codes.
No. of bytes received (response): The number of bytes received from the
destination node address (remote node).
Destination node address (remote node): The node address of the
OMRON Special I/O Slave Unit or Slave manufactured by another company to
which the explicit message was sent is returned.
Error code (response): An error code defined by DeviceNet.
Note 1. This command sends a DeviceNet-defined explicit message to an OMRON
Special I/O Slave Unit or a Slave manufactured by another company and
receives a response.
2. Unlike other FINS commands, this command is addressed to the local De-
viceNet Unit. The actual destination of the explicit message is given in the
command data, as described above.
3. If the DeviceNet Unit receives an explicit message, it will automatically re-
turn a response.
4. Refer to the DeviceNet Specification for details on parameters for explicit
messages.
5. Contact the Open DeviceNet Vendor Association, Inc. (ODVA) at 8222
Wiles Road, Suite 287, Coral Springs, FL 33067 USA (phone: 954-340-
5412, fax: 954-340-5413, e-mail: [email protected], Home page:
http://www.odva.org/) to obtain copies of the specification.
6. For details on explicit messages to OMRON Special I/O Slaves, refer to the
DeviceNet Slaves Operation Manual (W347).
6-4-2 Sending Explicit Messages Using CMND(490)
CMND(490) can be used in the CPU Unit ladder program of the CS/CJ-series
DeviceNet Unit to send explicit messages.
FINS command headers are attached to the explicit messages and sent.
After the FINS command header and the FINS completion code are sent, the
explicit message response is received.
The following command is used: [ CMND S D C ]
S: First command word
D: First response word
01 28
Response
code
Command
code
165
C: First control data word
Command data is set in order starting with the word specified for the
CMND(490) operand S (first command word) and continuing with words with
higher addresses in I/O memory in the command block format.
Command Format Example: Writing Error Clear Codes to the CPU Unit
In the same way, response data is set from the starting with the word specified
for CMND(490) operand D (first response word) and continuing with words
with higher addresses in I/O memory in the response block format.
Note Service data that is in word (2-byte) or double-word (4-byte) units, such as
word data and ERROR CLEAR codes, is specified from low to high (U) bytes
in command block format. For example, to specify word data $1234, specify
$34 and then $12. To specify $12345678, specify $78 to $56 to $34 to $12.
The command blocks are shown in the following diagram.
Set in this order starting from the word specified for the
CMND(490) operand S (first command word) and
continuing with words with higher addresses.

The response format data in service data that is in word (2-byte) or double-
word (4-byte) units, such as word data and ERROR CLEAR codes, is also
specified from low to high bytes in response block format
Example: Sending Explicit Messages Using CMND(490)
Operation The vendor code is read from a Slave (OMRON vendor code: 002F Hex)
using the EXPLICIT MESSAGE SEND command, 28 01. The command data
is written starting at DM01000, and the response data is stored starting at
D02000. When execution of CMND(490) has been completed, the completion
code is stored in D00006 and the instruction is executed again.

7-1-1 Setting Node Addresses
When the CX-Programmer is connected online, it uses FINS message com-
munications. It is thus necessary to set the node address to a number other
than 0 for DeviceNet Units mounted to the target PLC, DeviceNet Units
mounted to a PLC which is connected by a serial connection to the CX-Pro-
grammer, or DeviceNet Units mounted to a PLC relaying between networks.
If a DeviceNet Unit with the address node 0 exists in the online connection
path, connection will not be possible.
7-1-2 Setting the Message Monitoring Timer of the DeviceNet Unit
When connecting the CX-Programmer via the DeviceNet, set the message
monitoring timer inside the following DeviceNet Units to 20,000 ms (20 s).
The DeviceNet Unit mounted to the PLC with the serial connection to the
CX-Programmer.
The DeviceNet Unit mounted to the PLC relaying between networks.
Use the Configurator to set the message monitoring timer.

2. Double-click on the node address (#) that you want to change, or select the
node address and click on the Edit Button. A dialogue box like the one be-
low will appear.
3. Input the value, then click on the OK Button.
Note To set the same value for all of the devices, select the node address-
es to be set, then click on Copy to All Device.
Note 1. The default setting for the message monitoring timer is 2,000 ms (2 s). If it
is used without being changed, a communications error will result when the
CX-Programmer is operated. The setting range is 500 to 30,000 ms. Set in
units of ms.
2. The message monitoring timer serves as a timeout monitor for message
communications (both explicit and FINS). Settings can be made for each
device to which messages are to be sent. When the response from the tar-
get device is slow, the setting value must be increased. This is often the
case when FINS messages are sent across networks, because the re-
sponse time is typically slow. However, when the setting is increased, sub-
sequent messages cannot be sent to the same device until it is finished
waiting for the response.
Whereas the DeviceNet Unit monitors the message time-out with this tim-
er, the CPU Unit monitors with the response monitor time set in the CMND/
SEND/RECV instruction. There is thus no effect when only one of them,
i.e., only the message monitoring timer or only the response monitor time
in the CMND/SEND/RECV instruction, is increased or decreased. Set the
185
response monitor time in the CMND/SEND/RECV instruction to be the
same as or slightly longer than the time for the message monitoring timer
(Response monitor time in the CMND/SEND/RECV instruction message
monitoring timer.) If time-outs occur frequently, increase both of the set-
tings equally, while maintaining the relationship between them.
7-1-3 Setting the Frame Length when Using the CX-Programmer via the
DeviceNet
When using the CX-Programmer via the DeviceNet, set the frame length in
the Network Settings under Change PLC from the CX-Programmer to 542
bytes or less.
When using the peripheral bus, the value must be changed because the
default setting is 1,004 bytes. The Host Link (SYSMAC WAY) does not need
to be changed because the factory setting is 540 bytes.
The frame length setting is made with the following window. Click on the Set-
tings Button to the right of Network Type in the Change PLC Dialog Box to
access this window.
Refer to the operation manual for the CX-Programmer for details.
7-1-4 Response when Using the CX-Programmer via the DeviceNet
To assure appropriate remote I/O response in the DeviceNet field network, the
DeviceNet Unit is designed to prioritize remote I/O communications over mes-
sage communications. For this reason, when the CX-Programmer is con-
nected via the DeviceNet Unit, its response suffers by up to a nine-fold drop
(for a communications speed of 500 Kbps) in comparison with connection by
a peripheral bus.
The following methods can be used to improve this response.
1,2,3... 1. Temporarily disable remote I/O communications.
Operate the CX-Programmer after disabling remote I/O communications
by turning ON the Remote I/O Communications Stop Switch (word n, bit
04) in the allocated CIO Area words. This will limit the drop in response to
Set this value
to 542 or less.
186
Memory Card Backup Functions Section 7-2
a maximum of four-fold (for a communications speed of 500 Kbps) in com-
parison with connection by a peripheral bus.
2. Temporarily extend the communications cycle time.
Operate the CX-Programmer after extending the cycle time in the Commu-
nications Cycle Time Setup Table (word m) in the DM Area, and turning ON
the Temporary Setting Switch for Communications Cycle Time (word n, bit
12).
Extending the communications cycle time 1.5 times will result in a 20%-
30% improvement in response. However, whereas the CX-Programmer re-
sponse will increasingly improve by extending the communications cycle
time, the remote I/O communications response will suffer.
Note The CX-Programmer response decreases in accordance with decreases in
the DeviceNet communications speed. At a speed of 125 Kbps, response will
suffer by up to a twenty-fold drop in comparison with connection by a periph-
eral bus.
Accordingly, a DeviceNet communications speed of 500 Kbps is recom-
mended when the CX-Programmer is connected to the network via the
DeviceNet Unit.
7-2 Memory Card Backup Functions
The DeviceNet Unit stores the following setup data in the internal non-volatile
memory (EEPROM).
Master scan lists
Slave scan lists
Message monitoring timer lists
Communications cycle time settings
Master/Slave functions enabled/disabled settings
Note Backup is possible only when scan lists are enabled.
With the CS/CJ-series DeviceNet Unit, all this setup data can be backed up to
and restored from a Memory Card mounted to the CPU Unit. (See note.)
Note The data can be backed up to a Memory Card only. It cannot be backed up to
a EM file.
If all setup data for a DeviceNet Unit that starts normally is saved on a Mem-
ory Card, that data can be read and used when replacing DeviceNet Units,
making the replacement process smooth.
Device parameter files (.dvf files) created using the Configurator can be saved
from the computer to the Memory Card and can be restored to the DeviceNet
Unit mounted to the CPU Unit. This means that setup data created using the
Configurator (scan lists and other parameters) can be downloaded to
DeviceNet Units simply by taking the Memory Card to site.

7-2-1 Outline of Functions
1. Backing Up Unit Setup Files
Saves all internal Unit setup data to the Memory Card mounted to the CPU
Unit.
Method: Turn ON the Setup File Backup Switch (word n+1, bit 15) to save the
internal Unit setup data to the Memory Card as a Unit Setup File.
2. Restoring Unit Setup Files
Restoring Unit Setup Files involves reading the data and setting it to a Unit.
The data saved to the Memory Card mounted to the CPU Unit is read to the
Unit.
Method: Turn ON the Unit Setup File Restore Switch (word n+1, bit 14) to read
the Unit setup data file on the Memory Card and to enable these settings as
the Unit settings.

Note If there is an error in the setup data or if the file could not be read, the File
Read/Write Error bit in Unit Status 2 (word n + 11, bit 08) will turn ON.
3. Saving Files from Configurator to Memory Card
Device parameter files (.dvf files) for this DeviceNet Unit that have been cre-
ated using the Configurator can be saved on the Memory Card via the HMC-
AP001 Memory Card Adaptor as file name DNnnBKUP.dvf (where nn is the
Unit number in 2-digit hexadecimal). This DeviceNet Unit can be mounted to
the CPU Unit and, by turning ON the Unit Setup File Restore Switch (word n,
bit 14), the setup data can be restored to the DeviceNet Unit.
Note The file name when saving setup data to the Memory Card must be DNnn-
BKUP.dvf (where nn is the Unit number in 2-digit hexadecimal). For example,
for unit number 00, the file name must be DN00BKUP.dvf. If the file is saved
under another name, the data cannot be restored from the Memory Card to
the DeviceNet Unit.
7-2-2 File Names
The following files are created on the Memory Card.
Directory (fixed): Route and directory.
File name (fixed): DNnnBKUP.dvf (nn: Unit number in 2-digit hexadecimal).

Simple Backup Function Section 7-3
7-3 Simple Backup Function
7-3-1 Overview of Function
The CPU Units simple backup function can be used when either a CS1W-
DRM21-V1 DeviceNet Unit is mounted to a CS1-H CPU Unit, or a CJ1W-
DRM21 DeviceNet Unit to a CJ1-H CPU Unit. This function enables all setup
data in the internal non-volatile memory (EEPROM) of the DeviceNet Unit, as
well as all data in the CPU Unit, to be automatically backed up to, restored
from, or compared with a file in a Memory Card mounted in the CPU Unit.
When all the setup data in the DeviceNet Unit is written to the Memory Card
using a simple backup operation, it is backed up as a Unit/Board backup file in
the Memory Card under the file name BACKUP@@.PRM.
Note The boxes in the backup file name represent the unit address of the
DeviceNet Unit, which is the unit number + 10 hex.
This backup file is also used when downloading data from or comparing data
with a file in the Memory Card.
Note The following table shows the Units that support the simple backup function.
Make sure that the Units being used support the function.
Note The DeviceNet Units setup data that is created as a Unit/Board backup file is
the same setup data that is backed up and restored when using the backup
function described in 7-2 Memory Card Backup Functions, but is not compati-
ble with the device parameter file. In the same way, although the content of
the device parameter file created using DeviceNet Configurator Ver.2.@ is the
same, it is not compatible with the backup file created using the simple
backup function.
7-3-2 Applications
Use the simple backup function to create a backup file of data for the entire
PLC, including the CPU Unit and Serial Communications Units/Boards, or
when replacing all the Units.

8-1 Remote I/O Communications Characteristics
This section describes the characteristics of remote I/O communications
when the DeviceNet Unit is used as a master in combination with OMRONs
slaves. Use this section for reference when planning operations that require
precise I/O timing.
The equations provided here are valid under the following conditions:
1,2,3... 1. The DeviceNet Unit is operating with the scan list enabled.
2. All of the required Slaves are participating in communications.
3. No errors are being indicated at the DeviceNet Unit
4. Messages arent being produced in the Network (from another companys
configurator, for example).
Note The values provided by these equations may not be accurate if another com-
panys Master or Slave is being used in the Network.
8-1-1 Communications Cycle Time and Refresh Time
This section explains the communications cycle time, communications time
per slave, and refresh time required for calculating processing time by the
DeviceNet Unit.
Communications Cycle Time
The communications cycle time is the time from the completion of a Slaves
remote I/O communications processing until remote I/O communications with
the same Slave are processed again. The communications cycle time is used
to calculate the maximum I/O response time.
The communications cycle time depends on the number of Masters in the
Network and on whether or not message communications are being per-
formed. The following explanation is for a network with one Master. For net-
works with several Masters, refer to More than One Master in Network in the
following section.

Time Calculation
Use the equations shown below to calculate the communications cycle time
(T
RM
) for a network with one Master. Note that if the result of this calculation is
less than 2 ms, the actual communications cycle time will be 2 ms.
T
RM
= (Communications time per Slave)
+ High-density Unit processing time
+ Explicit message communications time
+ COS/Cyclic connection time (ms)
+ 0.01 N + 1.0 [ms]
Communications Time per Slave:
This is the communications time required for a single Slave.
(Communications time per Slave) represents the total of the Communica-
tions time per Slave for all the Slaves in the network.
High-density Unit Processing Time:
3.5 ms
This is added if there are any Slaves in the network that use at least 8 bytes
for input, output, or both.
Explicit Message Communications Time:
(0.11 T

The explicit message communications time is added as a delay time when
explicit communications (sending or receiving) are performed.

Refresh Time
The refresh time is the time required for I/O data to be exchanged between
the PLCs CPU Unit and the DeviceNet Unit. The CPU Units cycle time is
increased when a DeviceNet Unit is mounted, as shown below.
Note 1. The number of words refreshed is the total number of words in the I/O area
that are used by the Slaves, including any unused words between words
actually used by the Slaves. For example, if there are only two Input Slaves
with node addresses 1 and 5, the 5 input words for nodes 1 through 5
would be refreshed even though the input words for nodes 2, 3, and 4 are
unused.
2. If message communications are being performed, just add the number of
words used in message communications to the above number of words for
whenever messages are being processed.
3. When the message communications are performed, an event execution
time must be added to the PLC cycle time.
4. For details about refresh time or PLC cycle time, refer to operation manual
of the PLC.

8-1-3 More than One Master in Network
The following equation shows the remote I/O communications cycle time
(T
RM
) when there is more than one master in the network. An example for two
masters is used.
First, the network is divided into two groups: Master A and the slaves in
remote I/O communications with it and master B and the slaves in remote I/O
communications with it.
Note Although in the above diagram the Slaves are separated into two groups for
convenience, the actual physical positions in the Network are irrelevant.
Next, we can refer to 8-1-1 Communications Cycle Time and Refresh Time
and calculate the communications cycle time for each group as if they were
separate Networks.
In Networks with two Masters, the communications cycle time for the entire
Network will be the sum of the communications cycle times for the groups.
T
RM
= T
RM-A
+ T
RM-B

Although this example shows only two Masters in the Network, the total com-
munications cycle time for any Network can be calculated by dividing it into
groups and adding the communications cycle times of all groups.
8-1-4 System Startup Time
Master Function
This section describes the system startup time for a network operating with
the scan list enabled. The system startup time is the delay from the time that
the DeviceNet Unit (master) is turned ON until remote I/O communications
begin. Here, we assume that the scan list is enabled and that remote I/O com-
munications are set to start automatically at startup.
The following table shows the system startup times for two cases. In the first
case, the DeviceNet Unit starts up just after all of the Slaves power supplies
are turned ON. In the second case, the DeviceNet Unit is restarted while com-
munications are in progress.

Message Communications Section 8-2
Program Example As shown in the preceding table, it takes time for DeviceNet communications
to start up. This programming uses flags in the Master status area to prevents
the Slaves I/O processing from being performed until remote I/O communica-
tions start up.
This programming is for a DeviceNet Unit with a unit number of 00.
Note Refer to 3-2 Allocated CIO Area Words for details on the Master Status Area.
Slave Function
It takes approximately four seconds from the time that the Devicenet Unit is
turned ON or restarted as a slave until remote I/O communications with the
master begin.
8-2 Message Communications
8-2-1 Message Communications Time
The message communications time is the time required from the time a Mas-
ter Unit starts to send a message over the Network to another node until the
Master Unit completes sending the message (data for SEND(192)/
RECV(193) and FINS commands for CMND(194)/IOWR).
The following equation can be used to compute the approximate message
communications time.
Message communications time =
Communications cycle time x ((No. of message bytes + 15) 6 + 1)
No. of message bytes: No. of data bytes following the FINS command code
The communications cycle time depends on whether or not remote I/O com-
munications are being used.
Message Communications Only (No Remote I/O Communications)
The following equation can be used to compute the message communications
time when remote I/O communications are not being used.
Communications cycle time =

Note 1. If the CPU Unit attempts to send another message or receives a message
from another node within the message communications time, the second
message or the message being received from another node may be de-
stroyed. Never execute a second communications instruction before the
message communications time has elapsed and never send messages to
any one node at intervals less than the message communications time.
2. If send or receive messages are destroyed, error records will be placed in
the error history of the Master Unit. If an error occurs, read the error history
using the FINS command or monitor the error history from the Configura-

3. The above equations can be used to find the approximate message com-
munications time, but this is a typical time, not the maximum time. The
message communications time will vary depending on the frequency of
message communications, the load on the remote node, the communica-
tions cycle time, and other factors. For any one Master Unit, the message
communications time can be greatly increased due to heavy loads and the
user program must be written to allow for this.
8-2-2 Calculating the Maximum Message Response Time
The message response time is the time required from the time a DeviceNet
Unit starts to receive an I/O memory read request message (BYTE DATA
READ explicit message) until the DeviceNet Unit completes sending the
response message to the client.
The message response times described below are based on the following
conditions:
1,2,3... 1. Only one DeviceNet Unit is mounted.
2. The I/O memory read request is returned from CS/CJ-series PLC in two
cycle time.
3. Baud rate: 500 Kbps
4. Communications cycle time: 3 ms (no remote I/O communications)
5. PLCs cycle time: 10 ms
6. DeviceNet Units refresh time: 2 ms (See note.)

remote I/O communications for a communications error, two errors can be
displayed: The slaves communications error and its most recent error.
Master Errors
Remote I/O
Communications Stopped
by a Communications
Error
Likely Cause
Pin 3 on the masters DIP switch is set to stop communications in the event of
a communications error and communications have been stopped due to a
remote I/O communications error, network power supply error, or transmission
timeout.
DeviceNet Unit Response
Remote I/O communications as a master will stop. Remote I/O communica-
tions as a slave and message communications will continue.

Software Switch Setting Errors
CPU Unit Status Error
Likely Cause
The software settings operation couldnt be performed because the CPU Unit
wasnt in PROGRAM mode.
The only response is the error code displayed on the 7-segment display. The
error display will be cleared the next time that a settings operation is com-
pleted normally.
Correction
Switch the CPU Unit to PROGRAM mode and try the operation again.
Unit Status Error
Likely Cause
The setting operation failed because the Unit could not perform the requested
process in its current status. The most common causes of Unit status errors
during settings operations are listed below:
The master was stopped and a software switch operation relating to the
master function was performed. (This does not include the master enable
operation.)
The scan list was enabled and a software switch operation was performed
that can only be performed while the scan list is disabled. (Scan list
enable and fixed allocation setting operations)
The scan list was disabled and a software switch operation was per-
formed that can only be performed while the scan list is enabled. (Clear
scan list and Backup Unit settings file operations)
The slave was stopped and a software switch operation relating to the
slave function was performed. (This does not include the slave enable
operation.)

Correction
Execute software switch operations one at a time.
Network Errors
Network Power Error
Note The NS indicator will flash red if the error occurs during remote I/O communi-
cations, otherwise the indicator will be OFF.
Likely Cause
The communications power supply is not being supplied properly from the
network.
As long as power isnt being supplied remote I/O communications will remain
stopped and errors will be returned in response to requests for message
transmissions. The indicator status, scanning, and message processing will
C5 --- --- ---

return to normal when the network power supply is restored, although scan-
ning will not resume if the DeviceNet Unit is set to stop remote I/O communi-
cations when a communications error occurs.
Bit 14 (Error Flag) and bit 05 (the Sending Error Flag) will be ON.
Bits 00 and 07 of n+10 (the Unit Error Flag and Network Power Error Flag) will
be ON.
Correction
Check the network power supply and the wiring of the network cables.
Transmission Timeout
Error
Note The NS indicator will flash red if the error occurs during remote I/O communi-
cations, otherwise the indicator will be OFF.
Likely Cause
A transmission request was not completed normally for one of the following
reasons:
There is not even one device such as a slave in the network.
The communications speed settings are not the same in all of the nodes.
CAN controller error
As long as transmission timeout is in effect, remote I/O communications will
remain stopped and errors will be returned in response to requests for mes-
sage transmissions. The indicator status, scanning, and message processing
will return to normal when the network power supply is restored, although
scanning will not resume if the DeviceNet Unit is set to stop remote I/O com-
munications when a communications error occurs.
Bit 14 (Error Flag) and bit 05 (the Sending Error Flag) will be ON.
Bits 00 and 08 of n+10 (the Unit Error Flag and Send Timeout Flag) will be
ON.

Likely Cause
The I/O areas set in the master scan list or slave scan list do not exist in the
CPU Unit. This error can occur when the Unit is mounted to a different CPU
Unit with a different number of EM banks or EM that has been converted to
file memory.
Note This error may occur during remote I/O communications, too.
Stops remote I/O communications for the function (master or slave) using the
non-existent area.
There is a possibility that this error will occur again. If it does occur again,
restart remote I/O communications to return the system to normal operation.

Error Log Functions Section 9-2
Likely Cause
A timeout occurred during remote I/O communications using the slave func-
tion.
If slave has outputs, the status of those outputs is determined by the hold/
clear outputs setting for communications errors.
Bits 00 and 03 of n+10 (the Unit Error Flag and Slave Error Flag) and bits 02
and 03 of n+14 (the Remote I/O Communications Error Flag for OUT1/IN1

Correction
Restart the CPU Unit. Replace the DeviceNet Unit if the error recurs.
9-2 Error Log Functions
Errors detected by the DeviceNet Unit are stored in the error log along with
the date and time of their occurrence. The error log can be read, cleared, and
monitored using FINS commands or a Configurator.
9-2-1 Error Log Table
Error Log Table Each time an error occurs, one error record is recorded in the DeviceNet
Units RAM error log table. The table can record up to 96 records. If another
error occurs when the table is full, the oldest record will be erased to make
room for the new error record.
The error log table records the following information.
Error code
Detail code
Time of occurrence (The CPU Units time is used for the time stamp.)
Error Log Storage Area When an error is detected, information on the error and the time stamp are
stored in the Units internal RAM as an error log record. Serious errors are
recorded in EEPROM as well as RAM. The error log records in EEPROM are
retained even when the Units power is turned OFF or the Unit is restarted.
OFF Red (lit) OFF 0601
225
The error log records in EEPROM are copied to RAM when the DeviceNet
Unit is turned ON.
When the error log is read with a FINS command or from the Configurator,
only the error log records in RAM are read. When the error log is cleared with
a FINS command or from the Configurator, the error log records in RAM and
EEPROM are erased.
Note Refer to 9-2-2 Error Codes and Detail Codes for a table listing the error codes.
Reading and Clearing the
Error Log
The error log table can be read or cleared by sending a FINS command to the
DeviceNet Unit. Use the DeviceNet Units unit address as the FINS com-
mands destination unit address. (The unit address is the unit number+10
Hex.)
Refer to the SYSMAC CS/CJ Series Communication Commands Reference
Manual (W342) for details on using the FINS commands. Refer to the Appen-
dix E FINS Commands and Responses for DeviceNet Units for details on
FINS commands addressed to the DeviceNet Unit.
When using the Configurator, the error log can be monitored with the master
error history read operation. With the Configurator, the error log can only be
monitored and the data cannot be saved.
Time Information The CPU Units time information is used for the time stamps in the DeviceNet
Units error log records. If the time information cannot be read from the CPU
Unit, the time stamp will contain all zeroes.
The DeviceNet Units time stamps will not be correct or consistent unless the
time has been correctly in the CPU Unit. Moreover, if the battery is replaced in
a CS/CJ-series CPU Unit, the time must be set again the next time that power
is turned ON.

9-3 Troubleshooting
9-3-1 CPU Units ERR/ALM Indicator Lit or Flashing
Use the following table to troubleshoot the network when the DeviceNet Unit
is mounted and the CPU Units ERR/ALM indicator is lit or flashing.
Note Refer to the CS1 Series CPU Unit Operation Manual (W339) or the CJ Series
CPU Unit Operation Manual (W393) for more details on these errors.
9-3-2 Remote I/O Communications Disabled
Use the following table to troubleshoot the network when remote I/O data
communications wont start. (The I/O Data Communications Flag remains
OFF in Master Status 1.)
Error Probable cause
An I/O verification error occurred. Make sure that the Unit is connected properly.
Check the I/O table with the I/O Table Verification operation and correct it
if necessary. After correcting it, perform the I/O Table Create operation.
A CPU Bus Unit setting error occurred. The CPU Bus Unit model registered in the I/O table does not match the
model of CPU Bus Unit actually mounted. Check the I/O table with the I/O
Table Verification operation and correct it if necessary.
After correcting the I/O table, perform the I/O Table Create operation.
A CPU Bus error occurred. Make sure that the Unit is connected properly.
Restart the Unit. Replace the Unit if it doesnt restart.
An I/O Bus error occurred. Make sure that the Unit is connected properly.
All of the DeviceNet Units indicators are OFF. Check whether power is being supplied to the PLC.
Check whether the DeviceNet Unit is mounted in the Backplane cor-
rectly.
When a watchdog timer (WDT) error has occurred in the PLC, follow
the procedures described in the PLCs manual to correct the problem.
All of a CS1W-DRM21(-V1) or CJ1W-DRM21 Units indicators will be
OFF when a CPU Bus Unit error has occurred. Check for a CPU Bus
Unit error.
The DeviceNet Units MS indicator is ON and
green, but the NS indicator remains OFF.
(The NS indicator normally goes ON about 2 s
after the MS indicator.)
If the DeviceNet Units 7-segment display is displaying an error code,
refer to the tables in 9-1 Troubleshooting with the DeviceNet Unit In-
dicators.
Make sure that the masters unit number setting is correct.
Make sure that the unit number is not duplicated on another Special
Unit.
Check the I/O table with the I/O Table Verification operation and cor-
rect it if necessary. After correcting it, perform the I/O Table Create
operation.
229
9-3-3 I/O Link Problems
Use the following table to troubleshoot I/O Link problems.
The DeviceNet Units MS indicator is ON and
green, but the NS indicator continues to flash
green.
(The NS indicator normally goes ON 2 s after
the MS indicator.)
If the DeviceNet Units 7-segment display is displaying an error code,
refer to the tables in 9-1 Troubleshooting with the DeviceNet Unit In-
dicators.
The DeviceNet Units MS and NS indicators are
ON and green, but the 7-segment display contin-
ues to flash the masters node address.
(The node address normally stops flashing
within 8 s after the NS lights.)
Check that the DeviceNet Units baud rate matches the baud rates set
on all of the slaves. If they dont match, set all of the baud rates to the
same value.
Make sure that there are121- terminators connected at both ends
of the trunk line. Connect 121- terminators if the wrong resistance
is being used.
Check whether all of the slaves settings are correct.
Check whether the communications cables are wired correctly.
Check whether the power supply cables and power supply are wired
and set correctly.
Check for broken wires in the communications and power supply ca-
bles attached to the connectors.
Check whether the slaves are operating properly.
When an OMRON slave is being used, refer to the DeviceNet Slaves
Operation Manual (W347).
If another companys slave is being used, refer to that slaves users
manual.
The I/O isnt simultaneous. Observe the following precautions when writing application programs:
The simultaneity of node-units of data is ensured between the PLC
and DeviceNet Unit.
In OMRON slaves, the simultaneity of word-units of data is ensured.
If another companys slave is being used, refer to that slaves users
manual for details.
At startup, OFF outputs are output from the
slaves.
When the master is operating in scan list enabled mode and the PLC is
set to maintain the status of I/O area bits, those held output points will
be output from the output slaves at startup.
Be sure to perform the Create Scan List operation and operate the
master with the scan list enabled.
Refer to the CS1 Series CPU Unit Operation Manual (W339) or the CJ
Series CPU Unit Operation Manual (W393) for details on maintaining
I/O area data with the IOM Hold Bit.

9-3-4 Communications Error Operation Settings
Use the following table to correct problems with the DIP switch setting for con-
tinuing/stopping communications for errors.
9-3-5 Scan List Problems
Use the following table to troubleshoot scan list problems.
Communications are stopped even though
there is no communications error.
When pin 3 on the DIP switch is ON, communications will be stopped if a
communications error, transmission timeout, or network power supply error
occurs.
While communications are stopped, the 7-segment displays will alternately
display error code A0 and the error code of the communications error that
caused the stoppage.
After a network power supply error or transmission timeout is corrected, the
indicators will show just the communications stoppage code (A0).
Communications are stopped by the DIP
switch setting, but dont resume after tog-
gling the Clear Communications Error Stop-
page Bit.
When communications cant be restarted with slaves that were communi-
cating normally before the stoppage, stop the communications again.
Check that the slave has started up and perform the clear communica-
tions error stoppage operation.
It may be necessary to perform the operation twice if the network contains
another companys slave that take a long time to join the network.
A scan list couldnt be created by the cre-
ate scan list operation.
A scan list couldnt be cleared by the clear
scan list operation.
Neither the create scan list nor clear scan list operations can be performed
until the I/O Data Communications flag goes ON. (The I/O Data Communi-
cations flag will be OFF for a short time after the power is first turned ON
and after the scan list clear operation is executed.)
Make sure that the I/O Data Communications flag is ON before attempting
to execute the create scan list or clear scan list operations.
The create scan list or clear scan list
operation was executed, but the masters 7-
segment displays still display - -.
(The - - display usually lasts for 1 s after
the create scan list operation or 0.1 s after
the clear scan list operation.)
Restart the DeviceNet Unit, execute the clear scan list operation, and then
the create scan list operation if necessary.
Replace the DeviceNet Unit if this doesnt correct the problem.
231
Maintenance and Replacement Section 9-4
9-4 Maintenance and Replacement
This section describes the routine cleaning and inspection recommended as
regular maintenance as well as the Unit replacement procedure required if a
DeviceNet Unit fails.
9-4-1 Cleaning
Clean the DeviceNet Units regularly as described below in order to keep the
network in its optimal operating condition.
Wipe the Unit daily with a dry, soft cloth.
When a spot cant be removed with a dry cloth, dampen the cloth with a
neutral cleanser (2% solution), wring out the cloth, and wipe the Unit.
A smudge may remain on the Unit from gum, vinyl, or tape that was left on
for a long time. Remove the smudge when cleaning.
!Caution Never use volatile solvents such as paint thinner, benzene, or chemical wipes.
These substances could damage the surface of the Unit.
9-4-2 Inspection
Be sure to inspect the system periodically to keep it in its optimal operating
condition. In general, inspect the system once every 6 to 12 months, but
inspect more frequently if the system is used with high temperature or humid-
ity or under dirty/dusty conditions.
Inspection Equipment Prepare the following equipment before inspecting the system.
Required Equipment
Have a standard and Phillips-head screwdriver, multimeter, alcohol, and a
clean cloth.
Equipment Required Occasionally
Depending on the system conditions, a synchroscope, oscilloscope, ther-
mometer, or hygrometer (to measure humidity) might be needed.
Inspection Procedure Check the items in the following table and correct any items that are below
standard.

9-4-3 Replacing Faulty Units
Replace a faulty DeviceNet Unit as soon as possible. Refer to the DeviceNet
Slaves Operation Manual (W347 or W404) or the MULTIPLE I/O TERMINALs
Operation Manual (W348) for details on replacing slaves. We recommend
having spare Units available to restore network operation as quickly as possi-
ble.
Precautions Observe the following precautions when replacing a faulty Unit.
After replacement make sure that there are no errors with the new Unit.
When a Unit is being returned for repair, attach a sheet of paper detailing
the problem and return the Unit to your OMRON dealer.
If there is a faulty contact, try wiping the contact with a clean, lint-free
cloth dampened with alcohol.
Note To prevent electric shock when replacing a Unit, be sure to stop communica-
tions in the network and turn OFF the power supplies to all of the nodes (mas-
ter and slaves) before removing the faulty Unit.
Settings after Replacing
DeviceNet Units
When the master is being used, the scan list (network file) must be registered
after replacing the DeviceNet Unit.
All of the settings data stored in the DeviceNet Unit can be saved to the CPU
Units Memory Card
1
and later read from the Memory Card
2
. It will be much
easier to replace the Unit if you save all of the settings data when the Unit is
operating normally.
Note 1. Toggle (OFF to ON) the Unit Setup File Backup Switch (word n+1, bit 15).
2. Toggle (OFF to ON) the Unit Setup File Restore Switch (word n+1, bit 14).
3. The backup file is saved to the CPU Units Memory Card with the filename
DNnnBKUP.dvf. (The number nn is the unit number in 2-digit hexadeci-
mal.)
Default Remote I/O Allocations
Turn ON power to all slaves and then turn ON the Scan List Enable Switch (bit
00). The scan list will be registered.
User-set Remote I/O Allocations
The scan list can be written to the DeviceNet Unit from the CPU Units Mem-
ory Card or a network file saved on a disk.
Using the Settings Data Stored in the CPU Units Memory Card
Use the following procedure to write all of the settings data from the Memory
Card to the DeviceNet Unit.
1,2,3... 1. Turn ON power to the PLC.
3. Toggle (OFF to ON) the Unit Setup File Restore Bit (word n+1, bit 14).
Using a Network File Stored on a Floppy Disk or Hard Disk
Use the following procedure to write the settings to the DeviceNet Unit from a
network file saved on a disk.
1,2,3... 1. Turn ON power to the DeviceNet Unit and the Configurator.
2. Place the Configurator online and read the network file that was previously
saved.
233
3. Use the Edit Device Parameters operation, specify the DeviceNet Unit that
has been replaced, and write the settings from the network file to the De-
viceNet Unit.
Creating a New Network File
Use the following procedure to write the settings to the DeviceNet Unit from a
network file saved on a disk.
1,2,3... 1. Turn ON power to the DeviceNet Unit, slaves, and the Configurator.
2. Place the Configurator online and display the Device List.
3. Specify the DeviceNet Unit that has been replaced, and use the Edit De-
vice Parameters operation to register slaves and allocate I/O.
4. Write the settings to the devices.
Note 1. When using user-set remote I/O allocations, always save the network file
to a floppy disk or hard disk to restore operation quickly if the DeviceNet
Unit needs to be replaced.
2. When the CPU Unit is replaced, be sure that all data in the DM Area, HR
Area, and other memory areas is transferred to the new CPU Unit before
starting operation.

Appendix B
DeviceNet Connections
DeviceNet has several different protocols for remote I/O communications between Master and Slave devices.
Connections are units used to monitor those protocols.
There are four kinds of DeviceNet remote I/O communications protocols (connections): Poll, bitstrobe, COS
(change of state), and cyclic. CS/CJ-series DeviceNet Units support all four types.
The connection used by the DeviceNet Unit is automatically selected if the Configurator is not used.
If the Configurator is used, the connection can be automatically selected by the DeviceNet Unit or the user can
specify the connections for each slave. Up to two connections can be set. COS and cyclic connections cannot
be specified at the same time. The characteristics of each connection are outlined in the following table.
Note 1. The C200HW-DRM21-V1 and CVM1-DRM21-V1 DeviceNet Master Units use bit-strobe connections
with slaves with 8 or less input points and poll connections with other slaves. The DeviceNet Unit au-
tomatically chooses the connection.
2. There can be only one master on each network if COS or cyclic connections are used.
Connection Characteristics
Poll Used for basic I/O.
Bit-strobe Used for input of 8 bytes or less. Sends broadcasting requests from master and receives input
from slaves.
COS (Change of
State)
Communications occur at regular cycles (heartbeat timer) and the con-
nection is determined by the master or slave sending the data.
Data can be sent only when required, which reduces the network com-
munications load.
This connection can be used to send data to the master or slave if the
master or slave data changes.
COS connections are given priority over poll and bit-strobe connections,
which may result in a longer communications cycle time due to the
higher frequency of COS connections used to send data or large
amounts of data sent using COS. Therefore, COS connections are
effective when changes to data are infrequent (approximately 100 ms
min.), or to give higher priority to small amounts of data.
For DeviceNet Units, the transmission timing can be decided in the user
program.
The following points apply for CS/CJ-series DeviceNet Units:
If the Master COS Send Switch is turned ON, remote I/O communica-
tions output data can be sent every time from the master using COS to
the slaves that support COS.
If the Slave COS Send Switch is turned ON, remote I/O communications
output data can be sent every time from the slave using COS to the
master (input data from the perspective of the master).
Even if the software switch is not turned ON, the COS communications
using regular cycles (heartbeat timer) can be performed simultaneously.
Note This CS/CJ-series DeviceNet Unit supports COS.
Note COS and cyclic
connections cannot be
used at the same time.
Cyclic Communications timing is determined by regular cycles (heartbeat
timer).
Masters and slaves send output or input data in regular cycles.
Cyclic connections are have higher priority than poll or bit-strobe con-
nections, which may result in a longer communications cycle time due to
large amounts of data sent using cyclic connections. Therefore, cyclic
connections are effective when changes to data are infrequent, or the
amount of data to be sent is small.
242
DeviceNet Connections Appendix B
Connections Using Allocations
Setting Connection Type
The settings for remote I/O communications connections differ depending on the allocation method, as outlined
below.
Fixed Allocation or User-set Allocations Using Allocated DM Area Words
The Master CS/CJ-series DeviceNet Unit automatically selects either poll or bit-strobe, whichever makes the
communications cycle time shortest.
User-set allocations Using Configurator
The Master CS/CJ-series DeviceNet Unit can make an automatic selection, the same as above, or the user
can select up to two connections for a Slave. The setting method is outlined below.
1. Select the Master Node in the Network Configuration Window in the Configurator.
2. Select Device Parameters Edit All Masters and select the corresponding Slave. Click the Detailed
Settings Button.
3. On the Connection Tab Page shown below, select a check box.
Automatic selection
User selection
Select up to two connections from poll, bitstrobe, COS and cyclic. COS and cyclic connections cannot be
used at the same time.
Allocation method Contents
Without Con-
figurator
Fixed allocation (scan
list disabled or
enabled)
Only 1 connection, automatically selected by the DeviceNet Unit.
(Either a polling or bit-strobe connection is used.)
using allocated DM
Area word settings
Only 1 connection, automatically selected by the DeviceNet Unit
based on the I/O area set in the Master User Allocations Table.
With Configu-
rator
using Configurator
The user can select the connection to be used for each node address
with the Configurator e.g., poll could be used for data and COS could
be used for status. Automatic selection or user selection can be spec-
ified. Two connections can be used simultaneously for one slave (but
COS and cyclic cannot be used simultaneously.)
243
Note 1. Output data using poll connections and output data using COS or cyclic connections are transmitted
using the same frame. Therefore set the same output size (bytes) when combining poll and COS or
poll and cyclic.
2. The COS/cyclic heartbeat timer is the smallest transmission interval for COS or cyclic connections.
It can be set for each corresponding slave.
Refer to DeviceNet Configurator Operation Manual (W382) for details on Configurator operation.
Connection Path
Connection path are parameters that specify the type of I/O data in the slaves. Depending on the type of slave,
the internal I/O data type may be able to be selected. If it can, the connection path and I/O data type in the
slave specified for remote I/O communications.
The connection path settings will differ depending on the allocation method, as outlined below.
Fixed Allocation or User-set Allocations Using DM
Connection path settings cannot be made.
User-set Allocations Using Configurator
The Configurator can be used to set the type of I/O data in the slave, using the connection path. The user can
use this method to set the I/O data type in the master and the remote I/O communications slave.
The connection path is saved by the Configurator to the CS/CJ-series DeviceNet Unit scan list and when the
remote I/O communications are started, the connection path is set to the slave via the DeviceNet network.

Master COS Send Switch
COS transmission is possible only for User-set allocations using the Configurator.
When required, remote I/O output data can be output from the master to a specified slave.
Output data can be sent at the communications cycle timing to the specified slave by other connections
selected automatically or by the user (only when using the Configurator).
In this case, the communications timing is not dependant on the communications cycle time but it is dependant
on the CPU Unit cycle time.
Note When a master or slave sending data with COS communications must handle large quantities of data or
when data is sent frequently using COS communications, the communications cycle time may actually
be longer than when using poll communications. This can have a large impact on the performance of
remote I/O communications and delay responses. Therefore, give ample consideration to the system
performance when using COS.
DeviceNet Units use the Master COS Send Switch in the allocated CIO Area words to execute COS transmis-
sions from the master to slaves. The procedure is outlined below.
Step 1
Before executing COS transmission, the connection for the destination slave must be set to COS in the master
scan list, using the Configurator.
Step 2
If the bit allocated to each node address from n + 2 words to n + 5 words is turned from OFF to ON, the output
data is sent to that node address at a timing independent of the communications cycle time.
Multiple bits can be turned OFF to ON simultaneously and output data can be sent to multiple node addresses
simultaneously.

The following diagram shows the transmission timing. After the COS send instruction has been sent to the
DeviceNet (at the I/O refresh timing for the CPU Unit), the COS transmission is executed to each slave immedi-
ately after the refresh (remote I/O communications), which each slave is performed during the communications
cycle. Therefore, when there are a lot of destination slaves, the COS send timing may be delayed in order of
the node addresses.

Appendix D
Multi-vendor Applications
This appendix provides precautions and reference material needed when using DeviceNet (CompoBus/D)
Units as DeviceNet components in a multi-vendor environment.
Connecting another Companys Slaves to an OMRON Master
If a Slave has an EDS file, it can be installed in OMRONs Configurator to enable handling it just like an
OMRON Slave. (OMRONs Configurator already has installed all of the Slave EDS files currently registered
with the ODVA.)
In particular, be sure to determine the number of words in the OMRON Master Unit that the Slave requires for
input and output.
For Connection Object Interface 2 (Polled I/O Connection), the number of I/O words allocated in the OMRON
Master can be found from the Produced Connection Size and Consumed Connection Size as shown below.
Up to 100 words can be allocated to inputs and another 100 words to outputs.
Produced Connection Size
This is the amount of memory (usually in bytes) allocated as input.
Consumed Connection Size
This is the amount of memory (usually in bytes) allocated as output.
If the connection size is an even number of bytes, the number of allocated words is: (bytes 2).
If the connection size is an odd number of bytes, the number of allocated words is: [(bytes +1) 2)].
If the connections size is zero (0), no words are allocated.
For Connection Object Interface 3 (Bit Strobed I/O Connection), the number of input words allocated in the
OMRON Master can be found from the Produced Connection Size as shown below.
Produced Connection Size
This is the amount of memory (usually in bytes) allocated as input.
If the connection size is an even number of bytes, the number of allocated words is: (bytes 2).
If the connection size is an odd number of bytes, the number of allocated words is: [(bytes +1) 2)].
Connecting an OMRON Slave to another Companys Configurator
When another companys configurator (a device that makes environment settings on DeviceNet Masters and
Slaves) is connected, it will be able to read settings from OMRON Masters and Slaves but not change them.
When another companys configurator is being used, we recommend creating an OMRON Slave EDS file (a file
that contains each Slaves parameters and operating information). Refer to the OMRON Slave device profile as
well as the Configurators manual for details on creating an EDS file.

DeviceNet Explicit Message Send Command for Other Manufacturer Nodes Appendix E
Parameter Details
[Send Destination Node Address] (Command)
Specifies the node address of the explicit message destination.
The local node DeviceNet Unit is specified for CMND and IOWR instruction
control data for Explicit Message Send commands and the actual destination
node is specified here.
[Service Code] (Command, response)
For commands, the service code defined by the DeviceNet is specified.
For normal responses, the value for when bit 15 of the service code specified
in the command turns ON is returned. For error responses, 94 hex, which indi-
cates an error, is returned.
[Class ID] (Command)
Specifies the class ID for the explicit message destination.
[Instance ID] (Command)
Specifies the instance ID for the explicit message destination.
[Service Data] (Command, response)
For commands, specifies the data defined by the service code.
For responses, returns the reception data defined by the service code.
[No. of Bytes Received] (Response)
Returns the number of bytes received after Source (local node) Node
Address.
[Source (local node) Node Address] (Response)
Returns the local node DeviceNet node address that was the source of the
explicit message.
[Error Code] (Response)
Returns the error code defined by the DeviceNet.
Explanation
The Explicit Message Send command sends a DeviceNet-defined explicit
message to an OMRON Special I/O Slave Unit or a Slave manufactured
by another company and receives a response.
Unlike other FINS commands, the Explicit Message Send command
specifies the local node DeviceNet Unit as the CMND and IOWR instruc-
tion control code destination. The actual destination node is specified
using the Destination Node Address in the Explicit Message Send com-
mand.
Always specify the local node DeviceNet Unit in the CMND or IOWR
instruction control code. If another node Master unit is specified an error
will occur.
If the DeviceNet Master Unit receives an explicit message, it will automat-
ically return a response.
Note 1. Refer to DeviceNet Specifications for explicit message parameter details.
2. For information on explicit messages for OMRON slave, refer to DeviceNet Slave Manual (W347 or
W404).
3. Contact the Open DeviceNet Vendor Association, Inc. (ODVA) at 8222 Wiles Road, Suite 287, Coral
Springs, FL 33067 USA (phone: 954-340-5412, fax: 954-340-5413, e-mail: [email protected],

Terms and Conditions of Sale
1. Offer; Acceptance. These terms and conditions (these "Terms") are deemed
part of all quotes, agreements, purchase orders, acknowledgments, price lists,
catalogs, manuals, brochures and other documents, whether electronic or in
writing, relating to the sale of products or services (collectively, the "Products")
by Omron Electronics LLC and its subsidiary companies (Omron). Omron
objects to any terms or conditions proposed in Buyers purchase order or other
documents which are inconsistent with, or in addition to, these Terms.
2. Prices; Payment Terms. All prices stated are current, subject to change with-
out notice by Omron. Omron reserves the right to increase or decrease prices
on any unshipped portions of outstanding orders. Payments for Products are
due net 30 days unless otherwise stated in the invoice.
3. Discounts. Cash discounts, if any, will apply only on the net amount of invoices
sent to Buyer after deducting transportation charges, taxes and duties, and will
be allowed only if (i) the invoice is paid according to Omrons payment terms
and (ii) Buyer has no past due amounts.
4. Interest. Omron, at its option, may charge Buyer 1-1/2% interest per month or
the maximum legal rate, whichever is less, on any balance not paid within the
stated terms.
5. Orders. Omron will accept no order less than $200 net billing.
6. Governmental Approvals. Buyer shall be responsible for, and shall bear all
costs involved in, obtaining any government approvals required for the impor-
tation or sale of the Products.
7. Taxes. All taxes, duties and other governmental charges (other than general
real property and income taxes), including any interest or penalties thereon,
imposed directly or indirectly on Omron or required to be collected directly or
indirectly by Omron for the manufacture, production, sale, delivery, importa-
tion, consumption or use of the Products sold hereunder (including customs
duties and sales, excise, use, turnover and license taxes) shall be charged to
and remitted by Buyer to Omron.
8. Financial. If the financial position of Buyer at any time becomes unsatisfactory
to Omron, Omron reserves the right to stop shipments or require satisfactory
security or payment in advance. If Buyer fails to make payment or otherwise
comply with these Terms or any related agreement, Omron may (without liabil-
ity and in addition to other remedies) cancel any unshipped portion of Prod-
ucts sold hereunder and stop any Products in transit until Buyer pays all
amounts, including amounts payable hereunder, whether or not then due,
which are owing to it by Buyer. Buyer shall in any event remain liable for all
unpaid accounts.
9. Cancellation; Etc. Orders are not subject to rescheduling or cancellation
unless Buyer indemnifies Omron against all related costs or expenses.
10. Force Majeure. Omron shall not be liable for any delay or failure in delivery
resulting from causes beyond its control, including earthquakes, fires, floods,
strikes or other labor disputes, shortage of labor or materials, accidents to
machinery, acts of sabotage, riots, delay in or lack of transportation or the
requirements of any government authority.
11. Shipping; Delivery. Unless otherwise expressly agreed in writing by Omron:
a. Shipments shall be by a carrier selected by Omron; Omron will not drop ship
except in break down situations.
b. Such carrier shall act as the agent of Buyer and delivery to such carrier shall
constitute delivery to Buyer;
c. All sales and shipments of Products shall be FOB shipping point (unless oth-
erwise stated in writing by Omron), at which point title and risk of loss shall
pass from Omron to Buyer; provided that Omron shall retain a security inter-
est in the Products until the full purchase price is paid;
d. Delivery and shipping dates are estimates only; and
e. Omron will package Products as it deems proper for protection against nor-
mal handling and extra charges apply to special conditions.
12. Claims. Any claim by Buyer against Omron for shortage or damage to the
Products occurring before delivery to the carrier must be presented in writing
to Omron within 30 days of receipt of shipment and include the original trans-
portation bill signed by the carrier noting that the carrier received the Products
from Omron in the condition claimed.
13. Warranties. (a) Exclusive Warranty. Omrons exclusive warranty is that the
Products will be free from defects in materials and workmanship for a period of
twelve months from the date of sale by Omron (or such other period expressed
in writing by Omron). Omron disclaims all other warranties, express or implied.
(b) Limitations. OMRON MAKES NO WARRANTY OR REPRESENTATION,
EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, ABOUT NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABIL-
ITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OF THE PRODUCTS.
BUYER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT ALONE HAS DETERMINED THAT THE
PRODUCTS WILL SUITABLY MEET THE REQUIREMENTS OF THEIR
INTENDED USE. Omron further disclaims all warranties and responsibility of
any type for claims or expenses based on infringement by the Products or oth-
erwise of any intellectual property right. (c) Buyer Remedy. Omrons sole obli-
gation hereunder shall be, at Omrons election, to (i) replace (in the form
originally shipped with Buyer responsible for labor charges for removal or
replacement thereof) the non-complying Product, (ii) repair the non-complying
Product, or (iii) repay or credit Buyer an amount equal to the purchase price of
the non-complying Product; provided that in no event shall Omron be responsi-
ble for warranty, repair, indemnity or any other claims or expenses regarding
the Products unless Omrons analysis confirms that the Products were prop-
erly handled, stored, installed and maintained and not subject to contamina-
tion, abuse, misuse or inappropriate modification. Return of any Products by
Buyer must be approved in writing by Omron before shipment. Omron Compa-
nies shall not be liable for the suitability or unsuitability or the results from the
use of Products in combination with any electrical or electronic components,
circuits, system assemblies or any other materials or substances or environ-
ments. Any advice, recommendations or information given orally or in writing,
are not to be construed as an amendment or addition to the above warranty.
See http://www.omron247.com or contact your Omron representative for pub-
lished information.
14. Limitation on Liability; Etc. OMRON COMPANIES SHALL NOT BE LIABLE
FOR SPECIAL, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES,
LOSS OF PROFITS OR PRODUCTION OR COMMERCIAL LOSS IN ANY
WAY CONNECTED WITH THE PRODUCTS, WHETHER SUCH CLAIM IS
BASED IN CONTRACT, WARRANTY, NEGLIGENCE OR STRICT LIABILITY.
Further, in no event shall liability of Omron Companies exceed the individual
price of the Product on which liability is asserted.
15. Indemnities. Buyer shall indemnify and hold harmless Omron Companies and
their employees from and against all liabilities, losses, claims, costs and
expenses (including attorney's fees and expenses) related to any claim, inves-
tigation, litigation or proceeding (whether or not Omron is a party) which arises
or is alleged to arise from Buyer's acts or omissions under these Terms or in
any way with respect to the Products. Without limiting the foregoing, Buyer (at
its own expense) shall indemnify and hold harmless Omron and defend or set-
tle any action brought against such Companies to the extent based on a claim
that any Product made to Buyer specifications infringed intellectual property
rights of another party.
16. Property; Confidentiality. Any intellectual property in the Products is the exclu-
sive property of Omron Companies and Buyer shall not attempt to duplicate it
in any way without the written permission of Omron. Notwithstanding any
charges to Buyer for engineering or tooling, all engineering and tooling shall
remain the exclusive property of Omron. All information and materials supplied
by Omron to Buyer relating to the Products are confidential and proprietary,
and Buyer shall limit distribution thereof to its trusted employees and strictly
prevent disclosure to any third party.
17. Export Controls. Buyer shall comply with all applicable laws, regulations and
licenses regarding (i) export of products or information; (iii) sale of products to
forbidden or other proscribed persons; and (ii) disclosure to non-citizens of
regulated technology or information.
18. Miscellaneous. (a) Waiver. No failure or delay by Omron in exercising any right
and no course of dealing between Buyer and Omron shall operate as a waiver
of rights by Omron. (b) Assignment. Buyer may not assign its rights hereunder
without Omron's written consent. (c) Law. These Terms are governed by the
law of the jurisdiction of the home office of the Omron company from which
Buyer is purchasing the Products (without regard to conflict of law princi-
ples). (d) Amendment. These Terms constitute the entire agreement between
Buyer and Omron relating to the Products, and no provision may be changed
or waived unless in writing signed by the parties. (e) Severability. If any provi-
sion hereof is rendered ineffective or invalid, such provision shall not invalidate
any other provision. (f) Setoff. Buyer shall have no right to set off any amounts
against the amount owing in respect of this invoice. (g) Definitions. As used
herein, including means including without limitation; and Omron Compa-
nies (or similar words) mean Omron Corporation and any direct or indirect
subsidiary or affiliate thereof.
Certain Precautions on Specifications and Use
1. Suitability of Use. Omron Companies shall not be responsible for conformity
with any standards, codes or regulations which apply to the combination of the
Product in the Buyers application or use of the Product. At Buyers request,
Omron will provide applicable third party certification documents identifying
ratings and limitations of use which apply to the Product. This information by
itself is not sufficient for a complete determination of the suitability of the Prod-
uct in combination with the end product, machine, system, or other application
or use. Buyer shall be solely responsible for determining appropriateness of
the particular Product with respect to Buyers application, product or system.
Buyer shall take application responsibility in all cases but the following is a
non-exhaustive list of applications for which particular attention must be given:
(i) Outdoor use, uses involving potential chemical contamination or electrical
interference, or conditions or uses not described in this document.
(ii) Use in consumer products or any use in significant quantities.
(iii) Energy control systems, combustion systems, railroad systems, aviation
systems, medical equipment, amusement machines, vehicles, safety equip-
ment, and installations subject to separate industry or government regulations.
(iv) Systems, machines and equipment that could present a risk to life or prop-
erty. Please know and observe all prohibitions of use applicable to this Prod-
uct.
NEVER USE THE PRODUCT FOR AN APPLICATION INVOLVING SERIOUS
RISK TO LIFE OR PROPERTY OR IN LARGE QUANTITIES WITHOUT
ENSURING THAT THE SYSTEM AS A WHOLE HAS BEEN DESIGNED TO
ADDRESS THE RISKS, AND THAT THE OMRONS PRODUCT IS PROP-
ERLY RATED AND INSTALLED FOR THE INTENDED USE WITHIN THE
OVERALL EQUIPMENT OR SYSTEM.
2. Programmable Products. Omron Companies shall not be responsible for the
users programming of a programmable Product, or any consequence thereof.
3. Performance Data. Data presented in Omron Company websites, catalogs
and other materials is provided as a guide for the user in determining suitabil-
ity and does not constitute a warranty. It may represent the result of Omrons
test conditions, and the user must correlate it to actual application require-
ments. Actual performance is subject to the Omrons Warranty and Limitations
of Liability.
4. Change in Specifications. Product specifications and accessories may be
changed at any time based on improvements and other reasons. It is our prac-
tice to change part numbers when published ratings or features are changed,
or when significant construction changes are made. However, some specifica-
tions of the Product may be changed without any notice. When in doubt, spe-
cial part numbers may be assigned to fix or establish key specifications for
your application. Please consult with your Omrons representative at any time
to confirm actual specifications of purchased Product.
5. Errors and Omissions. Information presented by Omron Companies has been
checked and is believed to be accurate; however, no responsibility is assumed
for clerical, typographical or proofreading errors or omissions.
