Grounding Considerations
Set the Network IP Address
To operate an EtherNet/IP adapter on an EtherNet/IP network, you must set a
network IP address. 'The 1769 EtherNet/IP adapters are shipped with BOOTP/
DHCP enabled.
The IP address uniquely identifies the module. The IP address is in the form
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx where each xxx is a number from 000…254.

mounting surface such as a metal panel. Additional grounding connections
from the mounting tabs on the adapter or DIN rail (if used) are not required
unless you cannot ground the mounting surface. See the Industrial
Automation Wiring and Grounding Guidelines, publication 1770-4.1
