( 3 ) Setting the Ethernet (LP) Communication Port

These are the optimum settings to perform engineering via the Ethernet communication port of the 218IF-02 Module.
For Ethernet connection, a general-purpose Ethernet board or PCMCIA Ethernet card must be mounted on the personal
computer. Prior to make settings, the IP address of the personal computer must be set.
The Ethernet (LP) communication port can be connected to the 218IFB function of the 218IF-02 Module. It has a
larger engineering message size in comparison to previous Ethernet communication ports, enabling high-speed engi-
neering communication.
The port type and Modules that can be used together are given in the following table.

[ a ] Mounting an Ethernet Card

Mount a general-purpose Ethernet board or PCMCIA Ethernet card on the specified connector of the personal com-
