The DeviceNet Router/B provides a powerful and easy to configure solution to exchange data between
DeviceNet™ and EtherNet/IP™, Modbus TCP/IP or Modbus RTU networks. The module can be
configured as a DeviceNet Scanner or a DeviceNet Device – allowing the user to not only integrate
DeviceNet devices into a Logix or Modbus system, it also allows EtherNet/IP or Modbus devices in an
existing DeviceNet network.
As a DeviceNet Scanner, the module can connect to over 63 DeviceNet devices where the cyclic
input/output data from each device can be mapped to an EtherNet/IP Target/Originator or a Modbus
Server/Client. The module can be configured to exchange explicit messages with DeviceNet nodes.
As a DeviceNet Device, the module supports input/output data sizes of up to 256 bytes using polled or
change-of-state connections.
In PCCC Client mode, the module can asynchronously exchange data between a DeviceNet Scanner
and an Ethernet PCCC device.
