AN-X2-MOD-MON
May 2016
DHCP
If the AN-X2 finds a DHCP server on the network, it obtains an IP address and other
network parameters (netmask and default gateway) from the DHCP server.
To find the address assigned, look at the DHCP server.
If the AN-X2 does not find a DHCP server, it reverts to the default link local address
169.254.42.84 and repeatedly flashes the SYS LED 3 times red followed by a pause.
Static IP Address
If you select static IP address, enter:
•
the IP address for the AN-X
•
the netmask for the AN-X
•
the default gateway for your network
You must enter a valid default gateway address even if there is no device at the gateway
address on the network.
Hostname
Enter a
Hostname
for the AN-X. This name is used internally by AN-X and may be used
to identify the AN-X if you have a DNS server on your network. The name can be from
1 to 30 characters long long and should contain only alphanumeric characters, no hyphens
or underscores.
TIP
When you configure the AN-X in RSLogix 5000, use this same name for
the emulated ENBT. See page 27.
Firmware
Select the firmware the AN-X is to load from the list provided. AN-X builds the list from
the firmware files on the microSD card that are compatible with the AN-X hardware.
Submitting the Configuration
Once you have entered all required parameters, click SUBMIT to write the configuration
to the file config.txt on the microSD card. The changes do not take effect until the AN-X
restarts.
The following page appears when you click SUBMIT.
