Introduction Features The SM-Ethernet is a Solutions Module that can be used on the following products to provide Ethernet slave connectivity: • Unidrive SP • Commander SK • Affinity • Digitax ST • Mentor MP With the exception of Commander SK, it is possible to use more than one SM-Ethernet module or a combination of SM-Ethernet and other Solutions Modules to add additional functionality such as extended I/O, gateway functionality, or additional PLC features.
Firmware version SM-Ethernet 1736 Firmware: 02.00.02 Hardware Issue: issue Approvals number Ser No : 8000001001 MAC: 00:00:1E:06:C8:2B Serial number MAC Address 2. The color coding across the front of the Solutions Module. SM-Ethernet being beige. SM-Ethernet User Guide Issue: 7...
Example: A date code of 1710 would correspond to week 10 of year 2017. Product conformance SM-Ethernet complies with IEEE 802.3 and meets the isolation requirements of safety standard EN50178. Conventions used in this guide The configuration of the host drive and Solutions Module is done using menus and parameters.

SM-Ethernet provides a standard RJ45 UTP/STP (Un-shielded/Shielded Twisted Pair) connection to a 10Mbs or 100Mbs Ethernet system. In addition to the RJ45 connector a grounding tag is supplied for supplementary bonding. SM-Ethernet provides 4 diagnostic LEDs for status and information purposes.
Module grounding SM-Ethernet is supplied with a grounding tag on the module that should be connected to the closest possible grounding point using the minimum length of cable. This will greatly improve the noise immunity of the module.
The setup and installation of the firewall should be done by a suitably qualified engineer and is beyond the scope of this document. SM-Ethernet User Guide Issue: 7...
4.9.1 Single PC to SM-Ethernet To connect a PC to the SM-Ethernet using the default setting of Pr MM.43 requires a crossover cable. This allows the two devices to communicate without the need to change any settings on SM-Ethernet or the use of a switch or hub.

Single PC to multiple SM-Ethernet using a single switch Connecting multiple SM-Ethernet modules should be done using an industrial grade switch. Each SM-Ethernet or PC is connected to the switch using a standard RJ45 lead (patch lead). Figure 4-4 Single PC to multiple SM-Ethernet modules using a switch...
The issue of addressing becomes important when connecting multiple networks together or connecting to the Internet where there is a strong possibility of duplication of addresses if a scheme is not followed. SM-Ethernet User Guide Issue: 7...
Using the subnet mask it is possible to modify the IP addressing such that the ratio of NOTE subnets and host addresses may be changed. This gives you the facility to “adjust” standard classes to suit your specific requirements. SM-Ethernet User Guide Issue: 7...

Ethernet. Any leased addresses should be leased permanently to prevent IP address changes. If SM-Ethernet is configured to use DHCP and the module requires exchanging, the new NOTE SM-Ethernet module will have a different MAC address and hence the DHCP server will issue the new module with a different IP address.
Pr MM.32 = ON Check data rate. See Chapter 5 (Pr MM.04) Ensure PC is on the same subnet or the default See Chapter 5 gateway on the drive & PC are set SM-Ethernet User Guide Issue: 7...
5.11 Setting the IP address The SM-Ethernet IP address is formed by taking the component parts of the address from parameters Pr MM.10 to Pr MM.13 and combining them as in Figure 5-2. The address is then used in conjunction with the subnet mask.
5.12 Setting the subnet mask The SM-Ethernet subnet mask is formed by taking the component parts of the subnet mask from parameters Pr MM.14 to Pr MM.17 and combining them as in Figure 5-3. The subnet mask is then used in conjunction with the IP address.
5.13 Setting the default gateway The SM-Ethernet’s default gateway is formed by taking the component parts of the default gateway from parameters Pr MM.18 to Pr MM.21 and combining them as in Figure 5-4. The default gateway is then used in conjunction with the IP address and subnet mask to locate hosts on different subnets.
0 to 2 Access SM-Ethernet can be set to automatically detect the baud rate or be fixed at either 10Mbs or 100Mbs. Pr MM.44 will indicate the data rate that is being used by the SM-Ethernet. Table 5.4 SM-Ethernet baud rate Pr MM.04...
SM-Ethernet, a value of zero indicates that SM-Ethernet is initialised and ready to communicate.

Press the red RESET button. The drive will store all parameters (except Menu 20), but the operation of the SM- Ethernet will not be affected. Changes made to the SM-Ethernet configuration parameters will not take effect until the SM-Ethernet is re-initialised.
PC/PLC considerations If the subnet of the host PC/PLC is different to the subnet of SM-Ethernet, then both SM-Ethernet and the PC/PLC must be configured with the address of a gateway that allows communication between the two devices.
FTP will allow custom web page changes on SM-Ethernet. If an appropriate network infrastructure exists it will be possible to perform these updates remotely. SM-Ethernet has a basic file system that will allow the user to upload files. The following facilities are supported: •...
SM-Ethernet (v01.03.00 and later) supports the EtherNet/IP protocol and conforms to the EtherNet/IP adaptation of the Common Industrial Protocol (CIP) Specification. This is the same upper-layer protocol and object model as used in DeviceNet. The SM-Ethernet module will operate as a slave device and the following functionality is supported. •...

This timeout is defined by the EtherNet/IP protocol and is configured in the PLC master. If enabled, then SM-Ethernet will monitor the data traffic and if data is not received within the specified time, it will force a drive trip (SL1.Er, SL2.Er or SL3.Er, depending on which slot the solutions module is installed to, for Unidrive SP/Affinity/Digitax ST/ Mentor MP or SL.Er for Commander SK) and a trip code in Pr MM.50 of 50.

Whether consistency is enabled or not, data will always be consistent for an individual parameter, i.e. all 4 bytes of a 32 bit value will be consistent. The trigger parameter is a parameter that is used by SM-Ethernet to allow cyclic param- NOTE eters to be written and is configured from the EtherNet/IP sub-menu of the PROTO- COLS menu.

6.7.10 Configuring SM-Ethernet cyclic parameters on page 35. 6.7.10 Configuring SM-Ethernet cyclic parameters In order to use cyclic data over EtherNet/IP, SM-Ethernet must be configured to map the required parameter data to the assembly object.
