EtherNet/IP Communications Module

Setting the Data Rate

By default, the module is set to autodetect, so it automatically
detects the data rate and duplex setting used on the network. If you
need to set a specific data rate and duplex setting, the value of
module parameter 15 (EN Rate Cfg) determines the Ethernet data
rate and duplex setting that the module will use to communicate.

Step 1.

Set the value of parameter 15 (EN Rate Cfg) to the data
rate at which your network is operating.

Step 2.

Reset the module. Refer to Resetting the Module in
section 4.7.2.

4.6

Setting the I/O Configuration

The I/O configuration determines the number of drives that will be
represented on the network as one node by the module. If the Mode
Switch is set to the Single mode (default) position, only one drive is
represented by the module and parameter 22 (MDI I/O CFG) has no
effect. If the Operating Mode Switch is set to the Multi-Drive
position, up to five drives can be represented as one node by the
module.

Step 1.

Set the value in parameter 22 (MDI I/O Cfg).
