5.2.2 Assigning Device Name to a LioN-P Module
To enable a participant to be assigned an IP address in a PROFINET network,
each LioN-P module has to be issued with a device name. A participant
search enables the detected PROFINET devices to be displayed.
The LioN-P modules are assigned MAC addresses when they are shipped.
These are unique and cannot be changed by the user. The first MAC address
is depicted on the housing of the LioN-P module. This can be used to locate
every device in the list of reachable participants and to assign a device name
in each instance.
Connect the LioN-P module to the PROFINET network.
In the device summary for the LioN-P module, select slot 0 and in the main
menu
Online
>
Assign device name
open the
Assign PROFINET device name
dialog.
If the LioN-P module does not appear in the list of reachable participants in
the network, you can change the device filter and then update the list. If the
device still fails to appear, check your firewall settings.
Select a detected LioN-P module and assign it to the selected PROFINET
device name. If the device name was successfully assigned, this is indicated
by the status.
