Verify The Ip Parameter Configuration (Ip Communication) - ABB XIO-08 User Manual

If the Communication Status, Poll State and Port Status errors do not resolve and all the physical
connections are correct. Proceed to verify the IP parameters in the next section.
6.1.2

Verify the IP parameter configuration (IP communication)

Correct IP parameter configuration is required for RMC-XIO communication to work. This procedure
describes how to verify the IP parameters on the XIO. It assumes the RMC IP configuration is correct.
Consider the following:
–
The IP address of the XIO is automatically discovered by the RMC when the XIO interface is added
from the Communication Setup screen (RMC uses auto-discovery function and displays detected
XIOs). The RMC configures this IP address in its communication parameters to establish and maintain
connection with the XIO. If the detected IP address is not valid or compatible with the RMC,
connection will not be possible. Verify the XIO IP parameters as described in this section. An invalid
XIO address must be corrected in the XIO.
–
The IP address must be manually added to the RMC XIO Interface communication parameters when
the interface is added from the Application and License Management screen. Ensure that the XIO IP
address configured in the RMC is correct. An incorrect address in the RMC (even if the XIO
configuration is valid) must be corrected in the RMC.
Verify that the XIO has a valid IP configuration
To verify IP configuration in the XIO:

a. Verify that the connection to the network switch or router is not broken or damaged and that
the link is up.
b. Verify that the DHCP server is enabled on the field switch or router.
