Applying Power

Step 1.

Close the door or reinstall the cover on the drive. The
status indicators can be viewed on the front of the drive
after power has been applied.

Step 2.

Apply power to the drive. The module receives its power
from the connected drive. When you apply power to the
product for the first time, the status indicators should be
green or off after an initialization. If the status indicators
are red, refer to chapter 8, Troubleshooting the module
and Network.

Commissioning the Module

To commission the module, you must set a unique IP address.
(Refer to the Glossary for details about IP addresses.) After
installing the module and applying power, you can set the IP
address by using a BOOTP server or by setting parameters.

By default, the module is configured so that you must set the IP
address using a BOOTP server. To set the IP address using
parameters, you must disable the BOOTP feature. Refer to chapter
4, Configuring the module, for details.

Important:

New settings for some parameters (for example, IP
Addr Cfg 1 through IP Addr Cfg 4) are recognized only
when power is applied to the module or it is reset.
After you change parameter settings, cycle power or
reset the module.

!

ATTENTION: Unpredictable operation may occur
if parameter settings are not compatible with your
application. Verify that settings are compatible with
your application before applying power to the drive.
Failure to observe these precautions could result
in severe bodily injury of loss of life.
