Introduction
DeviceNet is a broadcast-oriented communications protocol based on the Controller Area Network (CAN). The media for the fieldbus is a shielded copper cable composed of one twisted pair and two cables for the external power supply. The baud rate can be changed between 125k, 250k, and 500kbit/s via Configuration Software or DIP-switch. DeviceNet is based on the Control and Information Protocol (CIP) and has a user organization, the Open DeviceNet Vendor Association, for further information see www.ODVA.org
