Frequently Asked Questions

What indicator confirms correct connection of the Pluto Gateway to DeviceNet?

If all connections are correct, the MNS LED must flash green initially, and then be fixed green after bus configuration.

How must I begin configuring the DeviceNet bus using RSNetWorx?

First, you must install the EDS file for the Pluto DeviceNet gateway by selecting “Tools” and “EDS Wizard...”.

What is the safest way to add a new device if I cannot get online with the system?

You can use offline mode by selecting the new gateway unit in the hardware tree rather than going fully online.

Which key operational parameters must be checked for the Pluto DeviceNet gateway?

Ensure you check “expected nodes,” “input assembly instance,” and “output assembly instance” within the device’s parameter settings.
