8.3.3 FL-net physical layer
For a transmission speed of 10 Mbps, the Ethernet physical layer offers five different transmission
methods: 10BASE5, 10BASE2, 10BASE-T, 10BASE-F, and 10BROAD36 (this last one is not
commonly used). Note that 100 Mbps Ethernet also exists.
The FL-net adopts 10BASE5 (recommended), 10BASE2, and 10BASE-T.
8.3.4 IP
address
An address named “IP address (INET address)” is used to differentiate a specified communication
device from many other communication devices connected to Ethernet. Therefore, all the
communication devices connected to Ethernet must have unique IP addresses.
The IP address is divided into two sections. One section shows a network address to which a
communication device is connected. The other section indicates a host address for the
communication device. Three different network classes (A, B, and C) are used depending on the
network size (Classes D and E are additionally used for special purposes).
Table 8-2 IP Address Classification
First 1-octet value Network address section
Host address section
Class A
0 to 127
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
Class B
128 to 191
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
Class C
192 to 223
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
Shaded “xxx” portions represent the associated address sections.
The IP addresses of communication devices connected to a network have the same network address
section and a unique host address section that is not duplicated within the network.
The FL-net uses a Class C IP address. It is recommended that you set the network address to
“192.168.250.N” (N is a node number between 1 and 254). It is also recommended that the
low-order host address coincide with an FL-net protocol node number.
