6 PLC-5 Ethernet Interface Module
Publication 1785-IN019B-EN-P - January 2007
PLC-5 Series/Revision Compatibility
All ControlNet 1.5 PLC-5 controllers support the module.
Channel 3A Default
The module’s channel 3A default is Autonegotiate 10/100 Mbps half duplex.
Enhancement to Series C, Revision B
The module is capable of managing a sustained Ethernet traffic rate of 45 frames per 10 ms
interval. In the rare cases when traffic exceeds that, the module will activate a storm handling
mechanism. When this occurs, the module may drop some received frames to prevent it from
locking up. The module increments the storm counter once during this interval. Transmission
Control Protocol (TCP) frames that were dropped during the storm will be retransmitted by
the source. To minimize the chances of storms occurring, use Ethernet switches instead of
Ethernet hubs.
Enhancements to Series C, Revision A
The series C, revision A version of the module’s firmware included these enhancements:
• BOOTP, DHCP, or Static entry of IP address
• Auto-negotiate speed selection
• Full/Half-duplex port setting
• 10/100 Mbps speed selection
• Email client functionality
• Enable/Disable HTTP Web server
• Enable/Disable SNMP functionality
