13.1 How do I set the interface on the MP85A?

Ethernet interface
Parameterization can only be done manually. In the PME Assistant, you can
only view the interface parameters. During configuration, the PME Assistant
must not be connected to the MP85A via this interface.
On the MP85A, enter the Ethernet (IP address) and the subnet mask. Opera­
tion with dynamic addresses (DHCP) is not possible. Please clarify with your
network administrator which IP address (Ethernet address) and subnet mask
you should use. If you would like to set up only one direct connection between
a PC and the MP85A, you can use any address, e.g. 192.168.169.xxx. The
last group of three digits (xxx) must be a number between 1 and 254 and must
be different for the PC and the MP85A. In this case, make sure that you use a
crossover cable, not an ordinary Ethernet cable.
Setting the address and subnet mask on the MP85A
1. Press and hold the SET key for at least two seconds.
The CAN BUS display appears.
2. Press the + key until ETHERNET appears on the display.
3. Press the SET key.
4. The MAC address is displayed.
5. Press the + key. The first part of the IP address appears.
6. Press SET, then you will be able to change the value with the + or - key.
Otherwise, press + to go to the next part of the address.
