USB connection.
1. Verify that your computer is connected to the USB port on the front of the controller.
2. From the Communications menu,
choose RSWho.
The RSWho dialog box appears.
3. Navigate to the USB connection.
4. Right-click the controller and
choose Module Configuration.
The Module Configuration dialog
box appears.

There are other methods to assign an IP address to the controller, such as using the BOOTP/DHCP utility. This section is
only one example of how to assign the IP address to the controller.
