ControlNet-to-DeviceNet Linking Device

Catalog No. 1788-CN2DN

Product Overview

The ControlNet-to-DeviceNet (CN2DN) linking device connects a ControlNet™

network to a DeviceNet™ network. The DeviceNet network consists of multiple

DeviceNet devices, such as RediSTATIONs, photoeyes, etc. The ControlNet

network consists of controllers, such as PLC® processors, HMIs, drives, I/O

devices, and so on.

The CN2DN linking device has two broad functions, supporting closed-loop

control, and configuration and monitoring.

CN2DN Hardware Description

Figure 1 shows the components of the CN2DN linking device.

Figure 1 CN2DN Linking Device

The CN2DN module is designed to be mounted on a 35 mm steel DIN rail. End

anchors are provided to keep the module in position.

The device has one ControlNet port with support for redundant media as well as

a ControlNet network access port. Rotary switches are used to set the ControlNet

node address. The CNet Status LEDs display the current status of each of the

redundant media channels.

The CN2DN has one DeviceNet port. Rotary switches are used to set the

DeviceNet node address and the data rate. DNet LEDs display the current status

of the network and the I/O channel.

Module Status and Linking Activity LEDs are also provided. For information

about the LEDs, see “Interpreting the Status Indicators” beginning on page 27.

The power supply connector is wired to 24V dc.

Installing the CN2DN Module

The CN2DN module has a clip for mounting on a standard 35 mm steel DIN rail.

Follow these steps to mount the CN2DN onto the DIN rail.

Important: You must use a steel DIN rail (A-B P/N 199-DR1 or equivalent) to

meet vibration specifications listed on page 34.

1. Press the module straight onto the DIN rail at the desired location. Be sure

that both latches snap into place.

2. Use the supplied end anchors to lock the module into place.

Figure 3 End Anchors and Mounting Tabs

Note that for very high shock applications the module may be bolted to the panel

through the four mounting tabs on the base.

Removing the CN2DN module

To remove the CN2DN module, simultaneously pull the 2 DIN rail latches away

from the rail and pull the module off the panel. (Note: This may require two

screwdrivers to open the latches.)

Connecting Power

The CN2DN linking device requires 18-26V dc input power. The CN2DN filters

and regulates the supplied power. The power connector is a 4-pin redundant

screw terminal connector. The pinout for the power connector is shown in

Figure 4.

Figure 4 Power Connector Pinout

Connect the primary power supply to the left + and - pair. The right + and - pair

may be used to chain the primary power supply to other devices.

Important: The connection to downstream devices will not be made unless the

connector is plugged in to the CN2DN.

ControlNet Connections

BNC Connectors

The BNC connectors on the unit should be connected to a ControlNet network

through a tap. The BNC connectors must be used to connect the CN2DN linking

device to the ControlNet network.

Refer to publication number 1786-6.2.1, ControlNet Cable System Planning and

Installation Manual, for further information.

Figure 5 ControlNet Connections

Network Access Port (NAP)

The CN2DN includes a Network Access Port (NAP) with an RJ-45 connector for

connecting programming terminals to devices on the ControlNet network. You

can use the NAP to temporarily connect a device such as a laptop computer to the

network.

Important: Do not connect the CN2DN to more than one ControlNet network

at a time. Attempting to connect to a second network will cause the

CN2DN to operate erratically.

!

ATTENTION: If you connect the product to a cable system that

does not support redundant media, connect the tap dropline to the

BNC connector labeled channel A. channel B is left open when

using single media.

If the cable system is redundant, connect all channel A connectors

to one cable, and all channel B connectors to the other cable.

Setting the Node Address Switches

Important: When using a 1788-CN2DN, the ControlNet network must have an

“Active Keeper” to keep track of network scheduling, clock

synchronization, etc.

Refer to publication 1756-5.71, ControlLogix ControlNet Bridge, for

information on configuring a 1756-CNB module.

CN2DN ControlNet Address

Choose and set a ControlNet network address for the CN2DN. Refer to figure 9.

Important: ControlNet addresses must be in the range 01-99.

The Example Installation

This installation manual provides an example showing how to link the DeviceNet

network to a ControlNet network to communicate with a Logix5550 controller. A

1756-CNB interface module must be in the chassis with the Logix5550

controller. Note that this is but one example. The CN2DN linking device can be

used with any Allen-Bradley controller that is provided with a ControlNet

interface.
