Appendix 9 Detailed Configuration of DigiOne IAP

Serial Gateway

For PLCs that support serial communications via DF1 protocol, there are various
gateways that can be used to intercept serial communications and translate to EIP. One
such device is the DigiOne IAP. The IAP has two serial ports and a single Ethernet port.
Port 2 on the IAP is a 9 pin d-sub connector that can be connected to the 9 pin d-sub
connector on PLC CPUs like the SLC 504 (and others). The IAP comes with a serial
cable that easily connects the IAP to the SLC 504. A standard Ethernet patch cable can
connect the IAP to an Ethernet network. This example will show how to configure an IAP
bridge communications between RSLinx/RSLogix and an MW100 with a SLC 504.

Connect the IAP to the serial port on the front of the SLC 504 via the included serial
cable. Connect an appropriate DC power supply to the terminals of the IAP. Power the
IAP up. Connect an Ethernet patch cable to the IAP and attach it to the network. The IAP
comes with a CD that includes a setup utility. When the CD boots up (assuming auto-run
is enabled), follow the instructions on the first page then click next and the setup utility
will scan the network for IAPs. For a new IAP it will not have an IP address, but it should
be easy to identify as the Product Name will show Digi One IAP. Select the IAP and click
Next.
