b) CONFIGURING LAN COMMUNICATIONS
The following procedure describes how to initially configure the Ethernet switch to work on your LAN.
1. Initiate communications from a PC to the C30 through a front panel serial connection (refer to the Configuring serial
communications section in chapter 1 for details), or if you are familiar with the UR keypad you can use it to set up the
network IP address and check the Modbus slave address and Modbus TCP port.

2. Ensure that the PC and the C30 are on the same IP network.
If your computer is on another network or has a dynamic IP address assigned upon a network login, then setup your
own IP address as follows

ties window.
