Installing the Adapter

Commissioning the Adapter

To commission the embedded EtherNet/IP adapter, you must set a unique IP
address. See the

Glossary

for details about IP addresses. When using the adapter

switches, see

Setting the IP Address on page 18

for details. When not using these

switches, a BOOTP server or adapter parameters can be used to set the IP address
after connecting the adapter to the network and applying power to the drive.

By default, the adapter is configured so that you must set the IP address using a
BOOTP server. For details, see

Using a BOOTP Server on page 26

. To set the IP

address using adapter parameters, see

Using Adapter Parameters on page 30

IMPORTANT

New settings for some adapter parameters (for example, Parameters 38 - [IP
Addr Cfg 1] through 41 - [IP Addr Cfg 4]) are recognized only when power is
applied to the adapter or it is reset. After you change parameter settings, cycle
power or reset the adapter.
