There are two ways to create an IP Table. The first method is to specify the IP
addresses in Configuration Manager (this will create a "default" IP Table):
Double-click each Ethernet device to display the Device Settings dialog box and
click the IP Net Address tab.
Set a new IP ID, if desired, and then enter the IP address in the Default IP Address
text fields.
After the SIMPL Windows logic program is complete and is then compiled and
transferred to the control system, choose Yes when prompted to "Send the Default IP
Table to the Control System."
The second method is to use the SIMPL Windows Viewport:
Select Setup IP Table on the Viewport Functions menu.
Click Add and select the IP ID of the device from the drop-down list. Enter the IP
address in the IP Address text fields and click OK to add the entry to the IP Table
editor. The entry will be preceded by an icon, denoting that it has not yet been
uploaded to the control system. The Set as Master check box pertains only to the
following control systems: the CEN-TVAV, CEN-CN and all 2 Series control
systems. These units can operate in mixed mode, meaning that they can contain a
SIMPL Windows program to control devices, in addition to operating in a
master/slave arrangement whereby they can receive commands from a master control
system in the larger program. In such cases the IP Table of the master control system
must include the IP ID and IP address of the slave device. Similarly, the IP Table of
the slave device must have an entry for the master control system. This is
accomplished through the following settings: a) The IP ID is the IP ID of the slave
device itself, as listed in the IP Table of the master control system. b) The IP address
is the address of the master control system. c) The Set as Master check box must be
selected. After the master control system has been added to the IP Table editor, the
Master? field will read True (the only instance where this field will read True).
Only one entry in the IP Table can be listed as Master.
After all the device IP IDs and associated IP addresses have been added to the editor,
click Send IP Table to Control System. Each entry will now be preceded by an
icon, denoting that it has been uploaded to the control system.
