Configuring Ethernet Global Data
Once you have collected all the essential information for your EGD system, connect to each PLC
and configure the exchanges.
For each PLC:
1. With the PLC programming software, open the Equipment folder for the PLC.
2. Open Hardware Configuration.
3. Choose Module Configuration and assign an adapter name to each Ethernet Interface in the
PLC that will be producing or consuming Ethernet Global Data. If you are using Simple
Network Time Protocol (SNTP), set the Network Time Sync parameter to SNTP.
4. If you are using Aliases to identify the consumer, assign them now. Choose Rack Operations
and select Name Resolution and Routing Table (or click the right mouse button and choose
Name Resolution and Routing from the pop-up menu). Click the Alias tab and assign
Aliases.
5. Choose Rack Operations and select Ethernet Global Data (or click the right mouse button and
choose Ethernet Global Data from the pop-up menu).
6. In the Ethernet Global Data dialog box, configure the Producer ID (in the Local Producer ID
field) and the produced and consumed exchanges for the PLC. Use the information you have
collected to fill in the parameters.
7. Connect and store the new configuration to the PLC.
8. Put the PLC in Run mode with I/O enabled.
Note
If you have configured a name server for an Ethernet Interface and the server is
not online, you may get periodic PLC Fault Table entries after storing the EGD
configuration to the PLC.
