Configuring the EtherNet/IP Gateway

Verifying Location of Unit

If you are managing multiple MGate units, you may wonder if you are configuring the correct unit in
MGate Manager. You can select a unit in MGate Manager and click Locate to make that unit’s
Ready” LED blink for a few seconds. This will tell you which physical unit corresponds with the
unit that you selected.

Monitoring EtherNet/IP Activity

For troubleshooting or management purposes, you can monitor the data passing through any MGate
EIP3000 on the network. Data events will be logged as they pass through the gateway. Rather than
simply echoing the data, MGate Manager presents the data in an intelligent, easily-understood
format, with clearly designated fields including source, type, destination, contents, and more. Events
can be filtered in different ways, and the complete log can be saved to a file for later analysis.
