Displaying and Setting the Industrial Ethernet Network
Parameters for a CP 1613

For the Industrial Ethernet module CP 1613, the current settings are displayed and
can be modified for the following functions:

duplex mode (half duplex, full duplex, automatic)

medium type (AUI, TP, automatic)

transmission rate (10 Mbps, 100 Mbps, automatic)

Three sets of option buttons are available with which the user can select the
duplex mode (half duplex, full duplex, automatic), the type of transmission medium
(AUI, TP, automatic) and the transmission rate (10 Mbps, 100 Mbps, automatic).
The default value for these three parameters is “Automatic”. After changing the
settings, you will be prompted to restart the driver.

Notice

If you select AUI as the medium type, you can no longer change the options for
the transmission rate and duplex mode. In this case,10 Mbps and half duplex are
set. If, on the other hand, 100 Mbps or full duplex are selected, AUI can no longer
be selected as the transmission medium.

Current Setting

Transmission parameters (current setting)

After the CP 1613 starts up, the current transmission parameters are displayed in
the relevant boxes. As long as no valid link to the partner is detected, the output
box displays “unknown”.
