There are two types of parameters for DeviceNet devices:
Read only parameters that are used to monitor the current status of devices. Read only parameters are not configurable and are not downloaded.
Configurable parameters that can be modified and downloaded.
You can view and modify default parameters and select the parameters that you want to include in the download at the DeltaV Explorer Library level. Any changes made to default parameters at the Library level affect the selected revision and all devices of that type subsequently created from that revision. Follow these steps to modify default parameters in the Library:
Right-click the revision.
Select Default Parameters.
Use the Default Parameters dialog to modify the default parameters and to open the Download Preferences dialog. Use the Download Preferences dialog to select the parameters that you want to include in the download and to deselect the parameters that you want to exclude from the download. Refer to the DeltaV Explorer online help for complete help on the fields in this dialog. It is highly recommended that you refer to the device documentation and select for download, only those parameters that are needed for the device. In addition, deselect parameters that have potential side effects such as MAC ID and baud rate. When you click OK in the Download Preferences dialog, you will see your changes in the Default Parameters dialog.
