Best regards. Hello Garry, There's some excellent information shared in links 1 and 3 from Ken. However, I’d like to clarify that the discussion in link 2 pertains to the 1747-SDN module, not the 1769-SDN. I just want to ensure that no one gets misled or follows an incorrect path. Happy learning!

Replacing your 1769 SDN DeviceNet Scanner is pretty straightforward, especially with your backup file ready. First, power down your system and disconnect the old scanner. Next, install the new Unit; make sure it’s properly seated in the chassis. After that, you can restore your network configuration using the backup file, which should automatically set up your connected devices like the PowerFlex and remote I/O. Just remember to double-check the device addresses and settings to ensure they align with your network requirements. Once everything is in place, power up the system, and monitor the status indicators to confirm it's functioning correctly. Good luck!
