Ethernet interface (X1)

The Ethernet interface
The CP does not have a physical Ethernet interface.
In STEP 7, the Ethernet interface is used as a placeholder for the configuration of various
address and monitoring parameters.
Ethernet interface (X1) > Ethernet addresses > IP protocol
Enter you configure IP address of the CP.
● Dynamic IP address
Enable this option if the CP is assigned the IP address dynamically by the network
provider.
● Fixed IP address from the mobile wireless network provider
Enable this option if you have a mobile wireless contract with which the network provider
assigns the CP a fixed IP address.
This is necessary when using S7 communication and Open User Communication.
Ethernet interface (X1) > Advanced options > TCP connection monitoring
The settings made here apply globally to all configured TCP connections of the CP. If
telecontrol communication is enabled, this is the connection to the telecontrol server.
Note the option of overwriting the general value configured here for individual
communications partners, refer to the section Partner stations (Page 53).
(Note: The settings made here do not apply to connections programmed for Open User
Communication with the program blocks.)
