Traditionally when running a PC control application, one PC, installed with one network interface card was required for each DeviceNet network. Now with the introduction of the BradCommunications SST Remote DeviceNet Scanner (part number: SST-EDN-1), a PC for each network is no longer required. The SST Remote DeviceNet Scanner controls I/O devices connected to a DeviceNet network without the need of a local PC. DIN rail A DIN rail or top-hat rail is a standardized 35 mm wide metal rail with hat-shaped cross section. It is widely used, especially in Europe, for mounting circuit breakers and industrial control equipment inside equipment racks.  mountable, up to 16 SST Remote DeviceNet Scanners can be connected back to a PC over Ethernet. The PC allows users to remotely access diagnostic information on the SST Remote DeviceNet Scanner and the DeviceNet network.

The SST Remote DeviceNet Scanner has many benefits including faster DeviceNet IO updates compared to using the traditional SST PCI (1) (Payment Card Industry) See PCI DSS.
