identify the module when you need to use them.

2. Master

configuration:

Open “Serial Master” mode or “Serial Slave” mode.

3. Network

settings:

Enable DHCP or static IP. Consult your ISP for other relevant settings.

A. IP

configuration:

There are 2 types of IP, static IP and DHCP.

Static IP: Preset or manually modified by the user.

DHCP: Automatically updated by the server. There has to be a server in the LAN.

IP

Explanation

Static

The user enters the IP address, subnet mask and gateway.

DHCP

DHCP server offers the IP address, subnet mask and gateway.

B. IP

address:

IP address is the location of the equipment on the network. All equipment connected to the network

has to have an IP address. Incorrect IP address will result in connection failure on the equipment or

even other equipment. Ask your ISP for questions about IP address setup. The default IP for

IFD9507 is 192.168.1.5.

C. Subnet mask:

Subnet mask is an important parameter for setting up the subnet, used for seeing if the destination

IP and the local equipment are in the same subnet. If not, the equipment will send the packet to the

gateway, and the gateway will send the packet to another subnet. Incorrect setting may cause the

destination equipment unable to communication to IFD9507. To see of your setting is correct,

conduct bitwise AND operations between your IP and subnet mask and destination IP and subnet

mask. If the two values obtained are the same, the two IPs are in the same subnet. The default

subnet mask of IFD9507 is 255.255.255.0.

D. Gateway:

Gateway is the window for two different subnets, allowing the two ends in different subnets to

communicate. For example, if the LAN has to be connected to WAN, it will need a gateway to

bridge the communication. The IP of the gateway has to be in the same subnet as IFD9507. The

default gateway of IFD9507 is 192.168.1.254.

4. Communication parameter setting:

See how to set up BR4, BR5, and BR6.

Applicable protocol: Modbus/TCP or Ethernet/IP.

5. Timer

setting:

For setting up TCP communication idle time, communication timeout and minimum delay time for

every communication datum. Please refer to the settings of BR11, BR12 and BR13.

10.3 Network Settings

The first step for all the network equipment to connect to the network is to have its own IP address (Internet

Protocol). The IP address is like a number for all network equipment to be identified in the network.
