EtherNet/IP
This section contains only basic information to setup an EtherNet/IP connection
with your PowerFlex 525 drive. For comprehensive information about
EtherNet/IP (single and dual port) and how to use it, refer to “PowerFlex 525
Embedded EtherNet/IP Adapter”, publication 520COM-UM001
.
Establishing A Connection
With EtherNet/IP
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 using a server. The IP address, subnet mask, and gateway addresses
will then be 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 the
control network using a gateway. The IP address, subnet mask, and
gateway addresses will then come from the adapter parameters you set.
If you are setting your network addresses manually using parameters, you
must set C128 [EN Addr Sel] to 1 “Parameters”.
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.
