Grounding Considerations
Set the Network IP Address
To operate an EtherNet/IP communication module on an EtherNet/IP network,
you must set a network IP address. This graphic shows the process that is used to
set the IP address for the module.
Figure 2 - Set the IP Address for the Module
See Set the Network IP Address on page 45 to view all steps for setting the IP
address.
ATTENTION: This product is grounded through the DIN rail to chassis ground.
Use zinc-plated yellow-chromate steel DIN rail to assure proper grounding. The
use of other DIN rail materials (for example, aluminum or plastic) that can
corrode, oxidize, or are poor conductors, can result in improper or intermittent
grounding. Secure DIN rail to mounting surface approximately every 200 mm
(7.87 in.) and use end-anchors appropriately.
