The Anybus IPcon

fi

 g utility is a Windows-based con

fi

 guration utility to set TCP/IP network settings in Anybus devices. It scans 

the Ethernet network for connected devices and allows the user to set the IP address, netmask, default gateway, DNS and 
hostname for each unit.

2. 

Download and install the 

IPcon

fi

 package.

Scanning for connected devices

First ensure that you have connected the Anybus units you want to install on the same Ethernet network the PC is connected 
to. Use standard Ethernet cables, straight-through or cross-over cables depending on how you connect to the device. 

When IPcon

fi

 g is started, it will scan the Ethernet network for Anybus devices. All detected devices will be presented in a list in 

the main window. To refresh the list, click on 

Scan

.

Changing IP settings

To change the IP settings on a detected device, double-click the device in the list of devices. This will open up a dialog in 
which you can enter the desired IP con

fi

 guration. The default password for authentication of the new settings is “

admin

”.

Click 

Set

 to restart the Anybus device with the new settings applied.

Test the new settings by opening a web browser and entering the assigned IP address. To discover the assigned IP address 
when using DHCP, simply perform a new scan with the IPcon

fi

 g utility and locate the device in the list.
