7 Connection of Control Unit
207 IB-1501269-F
7.11.3 Connecting I/O Device via EtherNet/IP
The expansion unit FCU8-EX565 functions as a scanner or an adapter of EtherNet/IP. Connect the EtherNet/IP-
compatible equipment with an ethernet cable (category 5e or above and twisted pair shield cable).
When EtherNet/IP is used on this unit, use EtherNet/IP configuration tool (EIP-CT) to configure the parameters. Input the
configured parameter file into the control unit using an SD card or a USB memory.
(Note 1) EtherNet/IP unit is equipped with two RJ-45 connectors (LAN1 and LAN2); however, the function of EtherNet/
IP is available on LAN1 only. Do not connect any cable to LAN2 port.
[Noise countermeasures of ethernet cable]
When the EtherNet/IP expansion unit is being used, expose the cable by removing a part of the cable sheath and
make sure to use the shield clamp for the exogenous noise countermeasure.
When you cannot use the shield clamp, make sure to install a ferrite core as a substitute to ethernet cable (near the
expansion unit).
