AN-X-TI-MAS
November 2011
Ethernet Configuration
The AN-X-TI-MAS module connects a device such as a ControlLogix
processor on Ethernet to scan a TI remote I/O network.
Before you can use the AN-X-TI-MAS, you must configure its network
properties on Ethernet.
Ethernet Configuration
AN-X can be configured to use a static (unchanging) IP address or it can
be configured to obtain its IP address from a DHCP server.
Unless you have control of the DHCP server, in most applications you
will configure AN-X to use a static IP address. Otherwise the DHCP
server may assign a different IP address each time AN-X powers up, and
any software that accesses the AN-X module would have to be
reconfigured.
AN-X is shipped with DHCP enabled. If it finds a DHCP server on the
network, the DHCP server assigns it an IP address. You can use the
utility AnxInit to find the IP address that the DHCP server has assigned.
Select
Utilities/Locate All AN-X Modules
and AnxInit will locate the
AN-X and display its IP address.
