Chapter 3

Configuring the Adapter Using DHCP/BOOTP Utility

1.

Verify and note the adapter’s hardware Ethernet Address (MAC), which
will be used in Step 6. There are two ways to do this:

Use the PowerFlex 525 drive’s keypad or a HIM to access the diagnostic
parameters of the drive. Scroll to parameters F687 [HW Addr 1]
through F692 [HW Addr 6] to view the adapter’s hardware Ethernet
Address (MAC). Finally, convert these decimal values to a hex value.

Remove the PowerFlex 525 control module front cover and locate the
adapter’s hardware Ethernet Address (MAC) label.

2.

On a computer connected to the EtherNet/IP network, start the
BOOTP/DHCP software. The BOOTP/DHCP Server window
appears.

3.

To properly configure devices on your EtherNet/IP network, you must
configure settings in the BOOTP/DHCP software to match the network.
Select Tools > Network Settings to display the Network Settings window.
