4.2.4 NetWork Configuration Search Window
The NetWork Configuration Search window opens when the Network Configuration button is clicked on the Con-
nection List tab page.
In offline mode, the Network Configuration button is disabled.
The following explains the details of the NetWork Configuration Search window.
Search Start Button
Displays the information for all EtherNet/IP devices currently connected to the same network when clicked.
The information is updated to the latest data each time the Search Start button is clicked.
IP Address
Displays the IP address of the EtherNet/IP device found.
Status (button)
Displays the status (Normal/Abnormal) of the EtherNet/IP device found in the form of a button.
Clicking the button that shows the status will open the Status Detail window to allow monitoring of the detailed
status of the device.
For details on the Status Detail window, refer to 4.2.5 Status Detail Window on page 4-12.
Product Name
Displays the product name (Machine Controller name/communication module name) of the EtherNet/IP device
found.
When the Close button is clicked, the NetWork Configuration Search window will close and the display will return
to the Connection List tab page.
A switching hub delay of 1 ms to 10 ms can occur, depending on the number of connected devices and the
amount of communication data. (The delay time differs according to the manufacturer of the switching hub to
be used). If connection timeouts occur frequently during I/O communication, adjust the RPI and Connection
Timeout Multiplier values in accordance with the network system configuration.
If engineering communication and I/O communication are performed simultaneously by connecting the Pro-
gramming Device (MPE720) to the EtherNet/IP port of the 263IF-01 Module, the I/O transmission interval
may become greater than the RPI value by up to about 5 ms.
