The controller is factory configured with two different subnets on the Ethernet ports:
• Port 1 (fec0): Ethernet interface for LAN connection with dynamic IP address (default)
• Port 2 (fec1): Ethernet interface for Ethernet-based fieldbus with static IP address
192.168.165.20 (default)
Note: Make sure that the network connection sharing setting is disabled to use the ethernet port for Modbus
TCP/IP communication. Configure the ethernet port parameters to adapt them to the Modbus TCP/IP master
(PLC) configuration.
