Flexi Soft Designer with version
O
1.4.0 performs an UDP scan. This means that all Flexi
Soft Ethernet gateways with firmware version
O
V2.00.0 (FX0-GMOD, FX0-GPNT and
FX0-GENT) in the network will be detected, even if they are in a different subnet.
A FX0-GETC can be detected as well, if it has been configured for EoE before (see
section 5.5.7 “Ethernet over EtherCAT (EoE)” on page 110 and section 5.5.8 “TCP/IP
configuration interface” on page 110).
Flexi Soft Designer version < 1.4.0 can detect only gateways with a matching subnet
address.
Select the gateway that you want to use for the new profile.
Enter a name for the profile to the
Entry name
edit field.
Click
OK
. The profile has now been created and is shown in the connection dialog:
