A 1788-EN2DN module defaults out of the box with the Autobaud feature enabled.

While this is desired when the EN2DN is only used as a network interface, if the 1788-EN2DN is used as a scanner on a network, the network baud rate will not be able to be determined by it. There generally is not enough traffic on a network to use the Autobaud feature unless the network is being communicated to from a scanner or a network interface, browsing the network. So with the 1788-EN2DN in Autobaud mode and no other network traffic, the EN2DN will not be able to determine a baud rate and communicate on the network. Autobaud should be disabled, if the 1788-EN2DN will be used as a scanner on the DeviceNet network. In order to disable the autobaud feature, a Set Attribute Single explicit message will need to be executed to Class 3, Instance 1, and Attribute 64 hex in the EN2DN. The length of this data is one byte and a value of 0 enables autobaud and a 1 disables it. An easy way to do this write is to use the Class Instance Editor in RSNetWorx for DeviceNet software. Below is a screen capture of this tool being used.

Page 20 in publication 1788-IN055A-EN-P also contains complete details of disabling/enabling the Autobaud feature.
