Configure the IO-Link Master Module

This chapter describes how to add and configure ArmorBlock 5000 8-channel IO-Link master
modules to your system in a Studio 5000 Logix Designer application project.
Before you can use your module in an EtherNet/IP network, you must configure its IP address,
subnet mask, and optional Gateway address. The IP address identifies each node on the
network or system of connected networks. Each node on a network (including your module)
must have a unique IP address.
You can configure the module IP address in the following ways:
• Use the network address switches on the module.
• Use the BOOTP/DHCP tool that ships with the Studio 5000 Logix Designer application.
• Retrieve the IP address from nonvolatile memory.
IMPORTANT To use the BOOTP/DHCP tool, you must know the Ethernet hardware
address (MAC ID) of your module.
Rockwell Automation assigns each module a unique 48-bit hardware
address at the factory. The address is printed on a label on the side of
your module. It consists of six hexadecimal digits that are separated by
colons. This address is fixed by the hardware and cannot be changed.
If you change or replace the module, you must enter the new Ethernet
hardware address of the module when you configure the new module.

Set the Network Address Switches

The module reads the network address switches first to determine if the switches are set to a
valid number. See Table 9
switches set to 999 and Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) enabled.
For instructions on how to adjust the network address switches, see the ArmorBlock 5000
8-channel IO-Link Master Module Installation Instructions, publication 5032-IN001.
