NOTICE
i
Ä The format of the device name must correspond to the specification of the PROFINET
standard.
Ä Ensure that the address for the default gateway matches the address set by the PLC for the
gateway. If no router is used, then Siemens Step 7 uses the same IP address for the default
gateway as for the MSI 430 module.
Ä If a project file with an active PROFINET IO is provided on the MSI 430 module, then only
one device in MSI.designer can be found by USB. If you would like to use the Ethernet to
connect with the MSI 430 module then select Edit in the Connect dialog, where you then
set the IP address of the MSI 430 module.
Set the IP address using the software
The IP address is typically assigned by the PROFINET IO controller (e.g. PLC). The MSI 430 module, how-
ever, also allows the configuration of the entire MSI 400 system via Ethernet TCP/IP. It can be necessary in
this case to already assign an IP address to the MSI 430 before the PROFINET IO network is set up. This
can also be done in the configuration dialog shown above.
