Communication with the Target Device

For the parameterization the target device must be connected with the engineering PC and
switched on. In the Master Module of the target device a SD card must be equipped.
The establishing of a communication connection between engineering PC and the target
device takes place via adjustable IP addresses. For the initial parameter setting of
CP-8000/CP-802x, default IP addresses are available. These are specific for the respective
physical connection.
With local engineering, fixed IP addresses are used since they are required only temporarily
for the parameterization of the target device.

In practice the default gateway is assigned on
the smallest (193) or greatest (222) usable IP
address in the network.
If the own network is connected via a router, the
address of the router is to be set.
