Testing and Addressing the EtherNet/IP Connection
WARNING: Risk of explosion
When taking measurements in hazardous areas, there is a risk of explosion from
sparks forming.
Take measurements on the terminal connections of a distributed I/O station,
with a hot work permit only, in other words when there is no potentially
explosive atmosphere.
For information about testing and addressing of EtherNet/IP modules, refer to
the EtherNet/IP Adapter User Manual, publication ENET-UM001.
If you have not installed the Rockwell Software® BOOTP-DHCP Server for
setting the network IP address, you can download and install it from:
http://www.software.rockwell.com/download/comms/rsnetworx/bootp-
dhcp%20server%202.3.2.zip.
The entire distributed I/O station is configured in the Add-on Profile:
1. Add a network card to the project (if needed).
2. Add a 1718 adapter to the project. Enable the status connection if
diagnostics are needed.
3. Add I/O modules on the 1718 bus.
