12. Verifying the IP Addresses
Verify that the devices' IP addresses in the network configuration file
matches the actual devices' IP addresses. If one of the IP addresses does
not match, change the IP address so that it matches.
Refer to ???4-8 TCP/IP Settings.
13. Connecting the Network Configurator to the Network
Connect the Network Configurator to the CPU Unit through the serial port
or Ethernet interface.
Refer to ???7-2-6 Connecting the Network Configurator to the Net-
work.
14. Downloading the Device Parameters
Download the parameters to all of the devices in the network.
Refer to ???7-2-7 Downloading Tag Data Link Parameters.
15. Verifying the Downloaded Device Parameters
Compare the parameters in all of the devices in the network, to verify that
the user-set device parameters were properly downloaded and saved in
the devices.
Refer to ???7-2-9 Comparing the Tag Data Link Parameters.
16. Closing the Network Configurator
Exit from the Network Configurator.
Note (1) The EtherNet/IP Unit will restart automatically when the device parame-
ters are downloaded to the Unit from the Network Configurator. The Unit
must restart in order to enable the parameter settings. Download the de-
vice parameters only after verifying that restarting the Unit will not cause
any problems in the system.
(2) After the device parameters have been downloaded, compare the param-
eters and verify that the saved parameters are correct.
(3) Before operating the actual system, always verify that the devices in the
network are operating as expected in the system design.
17. Operating the Actual System
Start operating the system.
This section describes how to change an EtherNet/IP system after the system
has started operating.
1. Stopping the System
Take steps, such as stopping the CPU Unit's program, so that device pa-
rameter changes will not affect the system.
2. Starting the Network Configurator and Connecting to the Network
Start the Network Configurator and connect it to the network via the CPU
Unit's serial port or an Ethernet interface.
Refer to ???7-2-1 Starting the Network Configurator and ???7-2-6
Connecting the Network Configurator to the Network.
3. Uploading the Network Configuration
Upload the network information to collect the current network configura-
tion.
