4.2 Addressing
The DX-NET-PROFINET2-2 communication interface is addressed with a
MAC and IP address.
Each device has a globally unique MAC address (6-byte Ethernet address):
The first three bytes specify the ID, while the other three bytes specify the
device's serial number, which is consecutive.
The DX-NET-PROFINET2-2 communication interface has specific names so
that each I/O device can be uniquely assigned/configured within a project.
A connection to the PLC configuration is only possible if a correct name
assignment exists, as the PLC recognizes the I/O device in the network via
its name.
The following instructions explain how to configure the IP address for the
DX-NET-PROFINET2-2 communication interface.
▶
Connect the communication interface to the basic unit on both the PC
and network side.
▶
Switch on the basic unit (i.e. the variable frequency drive). – The MS LED
of the DX-NET-Profinet2-2 communication interface must be lit.
▶
Open the
IPconfig
program and click on
Settings
.

The IP address can be configured using a network tool
(e.g. STEP 7/HW configuration or IPconfig from HMS).
￫
The IP address is configured in this manual using the
