Checking the network settings
Irrespective of whether MOVITOOLS
®
MotionStudio and the EtherCAT
®
master are
running on the same PC or the EtherCAT
®
mailbox gateway is accessed via routing, you
should check the network settings.
You can use the ping command to check whether the communication path to the
EtherCAT
®
mailbox gateway is established correctly. To do so, proceed as follows:
• Open a command-line interface window on your engineering PC to enter a DOS
command.
• Enter "ping" and the IP address of the EtherCAT
®
mailbox gateway. The complete
command line for the described network setting (example) is:
Ping 169.254.61.254
• If there is no response to the ping command, repeat the steps described in the two
previous sections:
– Configuration of the mailbox gateway in the EtherCAT
®
master (page 38)
– Configuring the network at the engineering PC (page 39)
INFORMATION
Settings of the EtherCAT
®
master are not adopted
• If the settings of the EtherCAT
®
master are not accepted, perform a reboot.
