2. Local Station’s IP Address

Enter the local station’s IP address. Do not use the same IP address for another node in
the Ethernet system.

An address consists of 32 bits, as shown in the following diagram. A period (.) separates
each 8-bit segment of the address, and each segment is entered in decimal.

• The range of data to be entered differs for each field of the IP address.
• Field No. 1: 0 to 255 (except 127)
• Field No. 2: 0 to 255
• Field No. 3: 0 to 255
• Field No. 4: 1 to 254

IP addresses 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.254 are recommended as private addresses. Check with the net-
work administrator.

3. Response Time (Response Check Monitoring Time)

Enter the time (0 to 255) that the CP-218 will wait for a response to be returned after
transmitting a command using a system function (the MSG-SND function). If a
response is not returned and a timeout occurs, the transmission will be retried, but only
for the number of times set in parameter 4.

The Count of Retry parameter will be invalid if 0 is set in the Response Time parame-
ter.

Enter 0 for the Response Time if the Count of Retry is set to 0 (and MEMOBUS is set in the Proto-
col Type
column of the CP-218 Connection Parameter Window).
