Anybus X-gateway CANopen - PROFINET
Doc.Rev. 2.10
Anybus IPconfig (HICP)
The module supports the HICP protocol used by the Anybus IPconfig utility from HMS, which can be
downloaded free of charge from the HMS web site. This utility may be used to configure the network
settings of any Anybus product connected to the network. Note that if successful, this will replace the
settings currently stored.
Upon starting the program, the network
is scanned for Anybus products. The net-
work can be rescanned at any time by
clicking ‘Scan’. In the list of detected de-
vices, the module will appear as ‘Anybus
X-gateway CANopen master’. To alter its
network settings, double-click on its en-
try in the list.
A window will appear, containing the IP
configuration and password settings.
Validate the new settings by clicking ‘Set’,
or click ‘Cancel’ to abort.
Optionally, the configuration may be protected from unauthorized access by a password. To enter a
password, click on the ‘Change password’ checkbox, and enter the password under ‘New password’.
When protected, any changes in the configuration requires that the user supplies a valid password.
When done, click ‘Set’. The adopted configuration will be stored in the ethernet configuration file.
Note: The HICP protocol communicates over UDP port 3250.
ARP Gleaning
The module supports the Address Resolution Protocol (ARP), allowing the IP settings to be altered us-
ing the ARP-command on a PC.
Syntax:
arp -s <IP address> <MAC address>
ping <IP address>
arp -d <IP address>
The ‘arp -s’ command stores the IP and MAC address in the PCs ARP-table. When the ‘ping’-command
is issued, the PC will address the module with the new IP address; the module recognizes that it was
addressed with the correct MAC address and adopts the new IP address from the ‘ping’ message.
If successful, new settings will be stored in the ethernet configuration file as follows:
IP Address: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx (value supplied in ARP command)
Gateway: 0.0.0.0 (no gateway)
Subnet: 255.255.255.0
DHCP: OFF
Note: This functionality may cause problems if multiple devices continuously issue ‘ping’-messages to-
wards the module. The reason for this lies in the very nature of this functionality; since the module
adopts the IP address from all ‘ping’-messages, any additional ‘ping’-messages may cause the module to
change back and forth between old and new settings.
