11.10.2 Assigning an IP Address
This port requires an IP address for its operation. The IP address is used to differentiate
nodes on the Ethernet network.
Set this address in the “Ethernet Port” Configuration Group to suit your Ethernet
network. If you are unsure of the Ethernet IP address to assign, ask your IT person
responsible for the network.

11.10.3 Assigning a Node Address
Both the Modbus/TCP and the Conet/e protocols also require a Node address to be
specified (sometimes called Unit ID or Slave Address). This address is preset to 2 in
this product as a default but may be changed to suit application needs by assigning the
value in this “Ethernet Port” Configuration Group as shown above.
11.10.4 TCP Port Number
Both Modbus and Conet/e are assigned TCP Port numbers. These can be changed if
required, but this is not normally necessary. Do not change the default values unless
you have a reason to do so. Changing these values can cause network access to fail.
