Topology View; Network And Communication Settings; Mac Address - Datalogic AMT58 Series Manual

GETTING STARTED
•
•
A subnet (PLC_2.PROFINET IO) is added to the operator panel. Click the subnet
(PLC_2.PROFINET IO) to apply the network settings. Specify the required network set-
tings under Properties > Network Settings in the Properties area (see point 9 under
Project overview, starting on page 15
throughout the entire network.

Topology view

Press the Topology view changeover switch in the Hardware and network editor to
enter the Topology view.
Decentralised peripherals on Profinet are configured in the Network view. The control-
lers and the decentralised peripherals assigned to them can be shown graphically.
During ongoing operation, however, it is not possible to see which ports are actually
connected and communicating with each other.
Yet this is precisely what is often important for diagnostics. For Profinet networks, the
Topology view enables this information to be displayed quickly and easily. An offline/
online comparison identifies the communicating ports. By detecting, presenting and
monitoring the physical connections between devices on Profinet, the administrator can
easily monitor and maintain even complex networks.

NETWORK AND COMMUNICATION SETTINGS

The MAC address of the device is reported in the label applied to the device enclosure.
See the following section.
The IP address and the subnet mask as well as the Profinet device name must be
assigned by the user to each interface of the unit to be connected in the network. By
default, before delivery the device name of the encoder is set to a blank string and its IP
address is set to 0.0.0.0. See "

MAC ADDRESS

The MAC address is an identifier unique worldwide.
The MAC-ID consists of two parts: the first 3 bytes are the manufacturer ID and are pro-
vided by IEE standard authority; the last three bytes represent a consecutive number of
the manufacturer.
NOTE
The MAC address has the following structure:

Copying/pasting entire stations, incl. configuration, or individual hardware mod-
ules
The MAC address is always printed on the encoder label for commissioning
purposes.
