If you have purchased the Ethernet/IP Op on read on for the procedure to set up your IP
Address to communicate with your exis ng PLC. The Ethernet/IP op on allows you to output
both the
fl

The main tasks involved to successfully enable this op on are to physically connect your HMI
to your PLC, to assign an appropriate IP Address to your HMI and then, to instruct your PLC to
accept the signal through your Ethernet connec on.
Step 1:
Install your Ethernet Cable into the RJ45 connec on (Ethernet NIC) on the back of
your HMI. To access the back of your HMI, simply open the door of your Digital
Electronics Unit. The HMI is a ached to the door itself. Please see the drawing
(Below) for the loca on of the RJ45 Connec on.
