Epsilon Ei
Indexing with DeviceNet

 

Small size and large functionality makes the Epsilon Ei-DN a natural fit in any DeviceNet related motion application.
The Ei-DN retains the same footprint as the Ei and now uses Polled I/O and Explicit Messages to change or initiate
any user parameter in the drive via DeviceNet. Choose between any one of four pre-defined DeviceNet word setups.

  • Index Select Pre-defined
    (Static DeviceNet Word Block, full Ei features)
  • Index Select User-defined
    (Dynamic DeviceNet Word Block, full Ei features)
  • Index Type
    (Position Control with Ei functionality)
  • Position Control
    (Position Control only)

 

 

  • Supports Explicit Messaging
  • Polled (8 bytes in, 8 bytes out)*
  • Access to all Motion Parameters within Polled I/O
  • Up to 63 devices per network
  • Baud Rate (125k, 250k, 500k) and MacID configurable via PowerTools FM or the “one-touch” reset button
  • Module and Status LED’s located on the front of the drive
  • 25 milliamp DeviceNet draw
  • Easy 5-wire terminal block for DeviceNet connection


*In and Out refers to PLC Inputs and Outputs

Change the nature of the pre-configured assembly blocks by
simply changing the mapping of the DN bits.The DN Bits are
user defined bits that can have different I/O functions mapped to them

When online, with PowerTools FM, the online DeviceNet tab gives the user a view of the
actual data that is being
sent and received through
the DeviceNet network.
Watch functions turn on and off over DeviceNet in PowerTools FM. Look at transmit and receive message counters, check the established connections, even look at the current baud rate, MacID and Master MacID.
