Configure the Embedded EtherNet/IP Adapter
The PowerFlex 525 Embedded EtherNet/IP network adapter requires a network IP address to operate on an
EtherNet/IP network. There are two methods for configuring the embedded EtherNet/IP adapter IP address:
•
BOOTP Server
– Use BOOTP if you prefer to control the IP addresses of devices with a server. The IP
address, subnet mask, and gateway addresses are provided by the BOOTP server. BOOTP is enabled by
default.
•
Adapter Parameters
– Use adapter parameters when you want more flexibility in setting up the IP address,
or need to communicate outside of the control network with a gateway. The IP address, subnet mask, and
gateway addresses then come from the adapter parameters you set.
Follow these steps to configure the Embedded EtherNet/IP adapter with the BOOTP/DHCP utility.
1.
Remove the control module
cover by pressing and holding
down the arrow on the front of
the cover and slide the cover
down and off of the drive.
2.
Connect one end of an Ethernet
cable to the Embedded Ethernet
adapter port in the drive, routing
the cable through the opening in
the bottom of the control
module.
3.
Connect the other end of the
cable to the system’s Ethernet
switch.
4.
Apply power to the drive.
5.
Start the BOOTP/DHCP utility.
IMPORTANT
If you are setting your network addresses manually with parameters, you must set C128 [EN Addr Sel] to 1
‘Parameters’.
IMPORTANT
Regardless of the method used to set the adapter IP address, each node on the EtherNet/IP network must have a
unique IP address. To change an IP address, you must set the new value and then remove and reapply power to
(or reset) the adapter.
