Each NRGC-PN can be uniquely identified via the MAC address which can be found on the front façade of the
product. The NRGC-PN is shipped without a PROFINET name and IP address, these have to be assigned by the user.
Note
: It is recommended to use the Neighbourhood / Topology detection for the automatic assignment of PROFINET
names. Therefore, both ethernet ports on the NRGC-PN have their own unique MAC address. For X1 increment the
device MAC address by 1 and by 2 for X2.
E.g
NRGC-PN MAC address
00 : 19 : EE : FF : 04 : 00
X1 MAC address
00 : 19 : EE : FF : 04 : 01
X2 MAC address
00 : 19 : EE : FF : 04 : 02
Automatic assignment of PROFINET names has to be enabled as indicated in Figure 12 below.
