Ethernet interface [note: TCP/IP, FTP (in preparation)]
–
Master communication interface (for field bus and sercos drives)
The following software requirements are necessary for connecting an opera‐
tor terminal (HMI): IndraWorks is required for programming an operator termi‐
nal and generating the symbol configuration (for accessing parameters and
variables).
To commission the HMIs of Bosch Rexroth, the following components have
to be installed when IndraWorks is installed. (It is possible to subsequently in‐
stall a component by restarting the installation; in this case, select "Change
installation" in the advanced options.):
●
"VI Composer" (for "VCP" type devices)
●
"WinStudio" (for "VEx" type devices)

Interfaces for connecting communication partners
6.2.1
Ethernet interface (TCP/IP)
Brief description
The drive-integrated PLC and the drive parameters can be reached via the
standard Ethernet interface with TCP/IP protocol.
TCP/IP communication works according to the CSMA/CD method
(Carrier Sense Multiple Access/Collision Detection). Therefore,
the time behavior is not deterministic. The reaction times depend
on the network structure and the data volume. For an estimation
of the velocities, please contact your network administrator.
Pertinent parameters
The following parameters are used in conjunction with TCP/IP communica‐
tion:
●
P-0-1530, Engineering: MAC address
●
P-0-1531, Engineering: IP address
●
P-0-1532, Engineering: Network mask
●
P-0-1533, Engineering: Gateway address
●
...
Setting the IP address
The relevant drive parameters have to be set according to the devices being
connected in order to establish a connection between the drive controller and
a PC or operator terminal (VCP or VEx). This means the IP addresses for
each device have to be specified according to the network masks so the no‐
des belong to a single network.
The IP address can be set via
●
the standard control panel at the drive controller or
