PLC-5 Ethernet Interface Module 21

Publication 1785-IN019B-EN-P - January 2007

Use your programming software package to designate channel 3A as the channel that
supports the module if you are configuring offline (if you are configuring online, designation
is automatic).

Specify Ethernet Information

Specify Ethernet information for the interface module by doing one of the following:

• Manually enter module configuration information using the screens within your

programming software package.

• Supply module configuration information using a BOOTP utility (use a BOOTP

server on your network and edit the BOOTPTAB file).

Manually Enter Module Configuration Information

The default for the Ethernet interface module is BOOTP enabled. You must first disable
BOOTP before you can use the programming software to enter module configuration
information.

To disable BOOTP and to manually enter module configuration information for channel 3A,
follow the steps specified in your programming software documentation.

IMPORTANT

To configure the module online, it must be attached to the controller.
