Create a GuardPLC Project with High-Speed Safety Protocol 6-5

Review the GuardPLC
Controller’s Communication
Settings

1. Retrieve or confirm the communication settings by selecting

Communication Settings from the Online menu.

a. If you know the current IP Address, SRS and Administrator

password, you can fill in the IP Address and SRS and select
Get. This retrieves and confirms the communication settings.
If you want to modify the current settings, see step 2.

b. If you do not know the current settings, you must connect

your GuardPLC controller directly to your computer’s
Ethernet port and fill in the last three digits of the controller’s
MAC Address. The MAC Address is located on a label above
the controller’s lower Ethernet ports. Select Get to retrieve the
current settings.

2. You can now enter the desired settings for the IP Address and

SRS.

3. To apply the new settings to the controller, click on either the

Set via IP or Set via MAC buttons, depending on whether you
use the IP Address or MAC Address in step 1.

4. Click the ->Project button to send the settings to the project.

TIP

The MAC Address lookup function can fail
if there is an Ethernet switch between the
PC running RSLogix Guard PLUS! and the
GuardPLC controller.
