2. Using the device

Some familiarity and knowledge of IP networking topics is requi-
red to establish communication between the drive and a PC.

2.1. Ethernet Communication

Cable type ___________________ category 5E shielded (min.)
Maximum length ______________ 10mt.
Speed ______________________ 10/100 Mbit/s
Max. number of networked devices_5 users (in Modbus TCP), 1

2.2. System requirements

Recommended browser:

Safari version 15.2.1 or later.
Minimum resolution supported: 320 x 540.

2.3. Connection to the drive

The drive can be connected to the EXP-MBTCP-ADV board via
a point-to-point connection with Static IP address (for direct PC/
Drive connection) or with Dynamic IP address (for PC/Drive con-
nection in a network).
2.3.1. Connection with Static IP (Default)
Connect the Ethernet cable between PC Ethernet terminal
and J1 (RJ45) board terminal,
enter http://169.254.10.10 into your browser.
2.3.2. Connection with Dynamic IP
Connect the Ethernet cable between PC Ethernet terminal
and J1 (RJ45) board terminal,
enter http://169.254.10.10 into your browser.

A) Device identification in the same sub-network
Access the device locally with the board serial number* by
entering the following in the browser:
http://mb-00SERIALNUMBER.DNS specific suffix/
SERIALNUMBER: this is an 8-digit numbers and is found on the
label of the EXP-MBTCP-ADV board, e.g. 41975605.

B) Device identification in the same network
In the same network as the device, access is possible if the
assigned IP is known.
The assigned DHCP can be obtained via the "ping" command
issued from the "Command Prompt" by a PC running in the
same subnet:
