Setting the Ethernet module as a network module.
The settings found must always be set in order to use the Ethernet module.
(1) "Operational settings" (Details are explained in Section 4.6)
This screen is for setting common items for when other modules use the Ethernet
module.
The settings on this screen must always be set, since they are required for the
Ethernet initial processing.

This screen is for setting common timer values for TCP/IP communication to be
used in the Ethernet module as well as for setting the DNS server in order to use
the e-mail function.
It is not necessary to set the timer values when communicating using the default
timer values.
(3) "Open settings" (Details are explained in Section 5.5)
This screen is for setting connection open processing, buffer memory for fixed
buffer communication and MC protocol to communicate data with an external
device.
(4) "Router relay parameter (Routing information)" (Details are
explained in Section 5.3.)
The following setting for data communication with external devices are set on this
screen:
• Communicating with external devices connected to other Ethernet networks via a
router
(5) "E-mail settings" (Details are explained in Section 10.6)
These settings are for using the e-mail transmission/reception and automatic
news (notification) functions.
Ethernet parameter settings are written to buffer memory with a ladder program, and
the contents are stored in the Ethernet module's flash ROM.
Also, the contents can be set with FX Configurator-EN (GX Developer).
