FLEX 5000 EtherNet/IP Adapters with RJ45 Ports
At powerup, the adapter reads the rotary switches to determine if they are set to a valid number for the last octet of the IP address. If the settings are
a valid number, these conditions result:
IP address = 192.168.1.xxx (where xxx represents the switch settings)
• Subnet mask = 255.255.255.0
• Gateway address = 0.0.0.0
• The adapter does not have an assigned host name, nor does it use any Domain Name System
If the network does not use 192.168.1.x, do not change the switch positions before you install the adapter. After you install and power up the
adapter, you can use the following to set the network IP address:
• DHCP server
• BootP DHCP EtherNet/IP Commissioning Tool - FLEX 5000 EtherNet/IP Adapters with RJ45 Ports only use the DHCP mode
• RSLinx Classic software
To reset the adapter to its initial out-of-the-box settings, set the rotary switches to 888 and cycle power.
For more information on how to use software to set the IP address, see the EtherNet/IP Communication Modules in Logix 5000 Control Systems

Install the Adapter onto the DIN Rail
The adapter must be installed left-most to the I/O modules.
1. Make sure that the DIN rail latch is in the Locked position.
2. If the DIN rail latch is in the Unlocked position, gently press the Reset lever until the DIN rail latch pops out to the Locked position.
3. Position the adapter so that the back of it faces the DIN rail.
4. Press the adapter against the DIN rail until it clicks.
5. Make sure that the adapter is latched securely.
WARNING:
When you change switch settings while power is on, an electric arc can occur. This could cause an explosion in hazardous location installations. Be
sure that power is removed or the area is nonhazardous before proceeding.
ATTENTION:
During DIN rail mounting of all devices, be sure that all debris (metal chips, wire strands) is kept from falling into the adapter or modules. Debris
that falls into the adapter or modules could cause damage on powerup.
WARNING:
If you insert or remove the module while backplane power is on, an electric arc can occur. This could cause an explosion in hazardous location
installations. Be sure that power is removed or the area is nonhazardous before proceeding.
