Configuring a Built-in Ethernet Port (As Needed)
You will still have to set an IP address for the Ethernet Port if the port is built into your processor. Right click
on the port name in the I/O Configuration screen and select “Properties”. A Module Properties window simi-
lar to the one shown in figure 6.2 will open. In this window you must set an IP Address for the port, not the IP
address of the SD17060E.
Adding the SD17060E
You can add the SD17060E to the project once the Ethernet port (built-in or bridge module) is configured.
1) As shown in figure 6.3 on the right, the Ethernet
port will be listed under the I/O Configuration tree.
Right click on the port and then click on “New
Module...” in the pop-up menu.
2) In the resulting window, scroll down the list until you
find the entry that has a description of “Generic
Ethernet Module”. (Module Type is ETHERNET-
MODULE in figure.) Click on the module name to
select and then click the [OK] button. A Module
Properties window will open.
3) Set the following parameters in the Module
Properties window. All parameters not listed here
are optional. Figure 6.4 shows a completed screen.
