1734 POINT I/O EtherNet/IP Adapter 11

Publication 1734-IN042B-EN-P - October 2013

Set the Network Address

The thumbwheel switches are set to 999 and DHCP enabled, by default. You can set the
network Internet Protocol (IP) address in the following ways:

Use the thumbwheel switches on the adapter.

Use a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server, such as
Rockwell Automation BootP/DHCP.

Retrieve the IP address from nonvolatile memory.

The adapter reads the thumbwheel switches first to determine if the switches are set to a
valid number. You set the node address by using the 3-position thumbwheel switch. Press
the + or - buttons to change the number. Valid settings range from

001…254.

When you use the thumbwheel switches to assign an address and set it to

001, the adapter

gateway address is set to

0.0.0.0. and the subnet mask is 255.255.255.0. When you use

the thumbwheel to assign an address and set it between

002...254, the adapter gateway

address is set to

192.168.1.1.

The adapter does not have a host name assigned, or use any Domain Name System when
using the thumbwheel settings.
