To access the DeviceNet network, either connect the computer with 
the RSView application to any of the following networks:

• same DeviceNet network as the desired device
• EtherNet/IP or ControlNet network and bridge communication 

to the DeviceNet network

– Avoid bridging through a CompactLogix, FlexLogix, or 

DriveLogix controller. They have limited resources for 
bridging.

– For those controllers, use the I/O tags in the controller, if 

possible.

To use an RSView project to get or set a parameter of a DeviceNet 
device:

Before you use this chapter, make sure that you can see all your 
devices on the DeviceNet network.

1. Start RSLinx software.

2. Click the RSWho button.

3. Expand a driver that lets you access 

the DeviceNet network.

4. Browse to the DeviceNet network.

5. Make sure you see all the devices 

that are connected to the DeviceNet 
network.
