Using The Ethernet Interface; Using The Usb Interface - HBM MP85A Series Operating Manual

Starting up/Setup mode
7.4.1

Using the Ethernet interface

Launch the PME Assistant program and enter the required interface connec­
tion in the Start window:
► In the Interface field, select "TCP/IP". The PME Assistant now gives you the
option of using the preset IP address or setting a new one.
► Make sure that the IP address of the MP85A process controller differs from
the address of the network being used in no more than one segment. The
address cannot be assigned automatically via DHCP.
At this point, enter a zero in the subnet mask. Set all other segments in the
subnet mask to 255.
► Now use the "Add IP to device list" button to transfer the IP address of the
MP85A process controller to the device list.
Alternatively, you can also press the "Scan" button to run a bus scan. In this
case, all the devices found will be displayed in the device list.
► If several MP85A process controllers are connected to the Ethernet net­
work, e.g. via a switch, make sure that each address has only been used
once. If you do not know the settings, you can find them out using the key­
board of the MP85A process controller (see section 7.1.2). The MP85A
process controller automatically sets the transmission speed to 10 Mbit or
100 Mbit.
► Use the "Start" button to launch the PME Assistant.
7.4.2

Using the USB interface

To configure the USB interface, launch the PME Assistant program and pro­
ceed as follows:
► In the Interface field, select "CAN". The PME Assistant now gives you the
option of selecting the CAN network you wish to use.
► The baud rate in the CAN network must be the same for all nodes. On
delivery, the baud rate of the MP85A process controller is set to 1 MBit/s.
Enter the baud rate your network uses.
If you select "Use as standard", this network will be selected automatically
the next time the system starts up.
