8-6 Connecting CompactLogix Controllers on Ethernet

used to configure this ENI/ENIW. When you start the ENI/ENIW
Configuration Utility, the following screen appears:

Figure 8.3 ENI/ENIW Configuration Utility ENI IP Addr Screen

For this example, we use 38400 baud on all serial connections. We
also assign IP addresses to all Ethernet products rather than using
BOOTP.

The “ENI IP Addr” tab and the “Message Routing” tab in the
ENI/ENIW Configuration Utility must be modified for the purposes of
this example. The IP address for the ENI/ENIW connected to the
CompactLogix controller (ENI #2) is the only address we need to add
to the ENI #1 Message Routing table. The other two Ethernet devices
are accessed by the computer via the computer’s Ethernet card. Set up
the two ENI #1 tabs as follows:

Figure 8.4 ENI #1 Configuration - ENI IP Addr Screen

IMPORTANT

The ENI series listed on the ENI IP Addr tab
determines which fields are available to modify. If
you attempt to save a higher series configuration to a
lower series ENI, the save will fail. However, a lower
series configuration can be saved to a higher series
ENI.
