Description
This command determines which method of acquiring an IP Address the drive will take.
Mode 0 and Mode 1 contain multiple methods of acquiring an IP Address. In
these modes each method will be implemented in the order they are listed
below until an IP Address is acquired
The drive will attempt to acquire a new IP Address as soon as the IP.RESET (pg 372) com-
mand is issued.
IP Mode Mode of Acquiring IP Address
0 Rotary Switches, DHCP, Auto IP
1 IP.ADDRESS, IP.SUBNET, IP.GATEWAY
2 DHCP, Auto IP
Recovering communications with a drive on an un-reachable IP address
Sometimes a drive may be configured for an IP Address, and the drive needs to be taken off-
line, and bench tested, or otherwise used outside of its saved IP Settings. If IP.MODE has
been set to 1 (using software defined static IP), the drive will boot up on an IP Address that may
be unreachable with the host computer’s settings.
If the IP address prevents communication the IP settings can be reset to default by the fol-
lowing procedure:
l
Set both rotary switches to 0
l
Hold down button B1 (top-side of drive) for 5 seconds.
The display will flash 0.0.0.0 and then attempt to discover an address by DHCP. Without
removing logic power from the drive, use Workbench to connect to the drive, reconfigure the IP
address settings as desired, and store the values to non-volatile memory.
