Operating Instructions, 12/2019, C79000-G8976-C426-05
Communication partner and IPv6
Note
Internet communication via IPv6
If you want to use IPv6 addresses and connect the CP to the Internet, make sure that the
router connected to the Internet and the providers of the Internet services used (e.g. e-mail)
also support IPv6 addresses.
OUC communication via IPv6
When you use the Open User Communication blocks and activate IPv6, make sure that the
communication partners support IPv6. In case of queries to the DNS server, the returned
addresses primarily use IPv6 addresses before they use the IPv4 addresses.

Advanced options
Telecontrol-specific transmission settings of the CP 1542SP-1 IRC
You can find a description of telecontrol-specific transmission settings of the
CP 1542SP-1 IRC in the relevant configuration manual, see Documentation references
(Page 113).
BA ... (BusAdapter)
To connect to the Ethernet network, the CP requires a BusAdapter. A BusAdapter does not
ship with the CP.
You will find the supported BusAdapters in appendix BusAdapter (Page 109).
Inserting a BusAdapter
As default setting, the CP uses a "BA 2xRJ45" BusAdapter.
If you are using a different BusAdapter, first go to the device view of the CP.
Open the "BusAdapter" directory on the right in the catalog and drag the BusAdapter to be
used onto the interface of the CP. Insert the new BusAdapter via the "Change device" dialog.
Configuring the BusAdapter
In the "Ethernet interface > Advanced options > BA ..." parameter group of the CP, you
configure the settings of the network connection via the BusAdapter.
If you do not use both ports of the BusAdapter, you can disable one of the two ports in the
"Activate" parameter group.
