Configuration of the gateway is easy with Rockwell Software’s RSNetWorx™ for DeviceNet or
NetTool-DN-D (available from Pyramid Solutions). Configuration consists of building a scan list of the
target devices on your DeviceNet network. This creates the input/output data that will be mapped into
Profibus-DP I/O data.
