Devicenet Daisy Chain Nodes

[BrettL]

Hi, I am looking to migrate some of our Electronic Overloads off of a Troublesome Devicenet Segment. Is there any documentation confirming the number of Devices that can be daisy chained on a drop cable? I am looking to Daisy Chain ~8 on one drop.

Length would matter. 8 on one trunk line should be fine. You'd just have to watch your voltage dropping and your resistance.

Thanks for the reply, all the devices are located in the same mcc I think total Drop length would not exceed 6m.

I think you'll be fine then. Pretty sure I've had up to 24 on one trunk line. When all else fails, consult the Devicenet bible.

EDIT: I thought I attached the devicenet bible, but it was apparently too large. You can find it pretty easily by googling for it though.

I will look for bible. Btw this is on a drop line not the trunk.
