Chapter 2 Configure the Interface
Set the Gateway Address
1. Verify 0:300 - [Net Addr Sel] is set to ‘1’ (Parameters).
2. Set the value of 0:310 - [Gateway Cfg 1] … 313 - [Gateway Cfg 4] to
the IP address of the gateway device.
• The PowerFlex 755T subnet mask cannot be 0.0.0.0.
• The PowerFlex 755T gateway address can be 0.0.0.0. If the gateway
address is 0.0.0.0, the PowerFlex 755T can only communicate with
devices on the same subnet as the drive. It is not able to communicate
with devices on other subnets.
• If the PowerFlex 755T gateway address is not set to 0.0.0.0, then it must
be set to an address that is on the same subnet as the drive's IP address.
3. Reset the interface by cycling power to the drive or by using the HIM
Reset Device function that is located in the DIAGNOSTIC folder of
the drive.
Using a BOOTP or DHCP
Server
There are various BOOTP and DHCP servers available. The following
instructions use the Rockwell Automation® BOOTP/DHCP Server. This is a
free standalone program that incorporates the functionality of standard
BOOTP and DHCP utilities with a graphical interface page installed
automatically as part of the RSLinx software. It is available at the Product
Compatibility and Download Center (PCDC) at http://
compatibility.rockwellautomation.com/Pages/ home.aspx. From the website,
choose the ‘Find Downloads’ link and search for the word ‘BOOTP’). See the
Read-me file and online Help for directions and more information.

TIP If the PowerFlex 755TM, 755TR, or 755TL drive is connected to a Stratix 6000
or Stratix 8000 managed Ethernet switch and the drive is set for BOOTP or
DHCP mode, the ‘dynamic IP address assignment by port’ (Stratix 6000) or
‘DHCP persistence’ (Stratix 8000) feature can be used to set the IP address
for the drive. For more details, see the Stratix 6000 Ethernet Managed
Switch User Manual, publication 1783-UM001
, or the Stratix 8000 and
Stratix 8300 Ethernet Managed Switches User Manual, publication 1783-
UM003.
TIP If you prefer to configure the IP address, subnet mask, and gateway address
by using interface parameters, set interface 0:300 - [Net Addr Sel] to ‘0’
(Parameters). For details, see Use Interface Parameters to Set the IP Address
on page 33.
