DeviceNet Status Byte

[aattanayake]

Hello all,
Can some one tell me what's in the devicenet status byte?

I have 4 1794-ADN nodes and when I map them there is a 16 bit word at the beginning of the mapping. I'm looking for the definition of each bit. Would be great if someone can tell me where I can find the info.

Thanks
Anton

The 16-bit Status Word that is the first 2 bytes of input from a 1794-ADN adapter is described in detail on Page 2-3 of the User Manual, publication 1794-UM005.

The most commonly used bits are Bits 00 through 07, which indicate the connection status of the 8 possible FLEX I/O modules.
