Description Information
[2] Timeout
Waiting time in ms that the
client waits for a reply from
the server after it has made
a request.

carried out.
In the default setting, the
device scan only retrieves
devices in the local network
segment.

IP address of the SMLP
server or of other devices
that are to be included in
the device scan but are
outside the local network
segment.
• Enter the IP address of
devices that are to be in-

but are
outside the local
network segment.
• If you are operating an in-
direct communication from
Ethernet to PROFIBUS,
enter the IP address of the

Excluded IP ad-
dress
IP addresses of devices
that should
not be included
in the device scan.
Enter the IP address of
devices that should
not be in-
cluded in the device scan.
This can be devices that are
not ready for communication
(e.g. because they have not
been started up yet).
Adding devices to the local network segment
During a device scan, the system recognizes only devices that are in the same local
network segment as the engineering PC. If you have devices that are outside the local
network segment, add the IP addresses of these devices to the list of SMLP servers.
Proceed as follows:
1. Open the "SMLP settings" tab [1] (→
2
52).
2. Select the address list of the SMLP server.
3. Open the "IP address of SMLP server" tab [5] (→
2
52).
4. To enter the IP address, click on the plus symbol [7].
5. Enter the IP address in the edit box [8]. Click [OK].
