Set the Network Address
The module ships with the rotary switches set to 999 and BOOTP enabled. You
can set the network Internet Protocol (IP) address three ways.
•
Use the rotary switches on the top of the module.
•
Use a BOOTP server or Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol
(DHCP) server, such as Rockwell Automation BOOTP/DHCP.
•
Use the Rockwell Automation RSLinx or RSLogix 5000 software.
The module reads the rotary switches first to determine if they are set to a valid
number for the last portion of the IP address. Valid numbers range from
001…254. When the switches are set to a valid number, the module’s IP address
is 192.168.1.
xxx (where xxx represents the number set on the swBOOTPitches).
The module’s subnet mask is 255.255.255.0 and the gateway address is set to
0.0.0.0. The module does not have a host name assigned, or use any Domain
Name System when using the rotary switch settings.
