[geoorge 0]

Hello Friends, im a regular ab programmer for stand alone aplications, but today i was moved to a new position in my company, and i will run device net system, i was wondering if someone has a book with this topic, or any information regarding device Net, i feel a little bit lost in the Ab.com because there is so much information, any reference about a book on bn.com or amazon thanks in advance

Try this instead... Go to www.odva.org. On the left side of the screen, click Devicenet. The documents listed there are very good and they're free. I'd start with the technical overview, then the planning and installation manual. That should cover all the basics. Good luck, Edited 16 Oct 2006 by mellis

If you are using an Allen-Bradley controller, you will have the RSNetworx for DeviceNet software. There is an excellent *.pps slideshow that comes with that software that explains the physical fundamentals of the network and the role that RSNetworx has in configuring slave device parameters and master scanlists. The DeviceNet Tech Bible is a lot to chew on, but represents a very good distillation of eleven years of experience and products that A-B has on the network.

Ken is correct it is a lot to digest, but worth every minute you'll spend reading it.
