Commissioning, Protocol Setting
4.1
Protocol Setting
Multiprotocol
You can use the multiprotocol modules to select various protocols for communication within a
fieldbus system. This allows you to integrate the multiprotocol modules into different networks
without having to obtain a specific module for each protocol. This technology also allows you to
use the same module in different environments. Using the rotary switches on the front of the
modules, you can easily and conveniently set the protocol and address of the module, provided
that the protocol to be used supports this. Once you have selected a protocol and started the
cyclical communication, the module recognizes these settings and uses the selected protocol
from this point on. To use another supported protocol with this module, perform a factory reset.
Setting a Protocol
Multiprotocol modules have a total of three rotary switches. Move the first rotary switch X100 to
the relevant switch position to set the protocol. If you use EtherNet/IP, set the last octet of the IP
address using the rotary switches (X100, X10, X1).

Assigning the Protocol Using the Rotary Switches
In its delivered state, the module does not contain any protocol settings. In this case, simply
select the desired protocol. To use a modified rotary switch setting (protocol setting), you must
perform a power cycle or a "Reset" via the web interface. Once you have set the protocol using
the rotary switches, the module saves these settings as soon as it starts a cyclical communica-
tion. You can no longer change the protocol using the rotary switch from this point on. To
change the protocol, perform a factory reset first.
If you set the rotary coding switch to an invalid position, the device signals this with a flash
code: the BF/MS/ERR LED flashes red three times.
The IP address can be changed depending on the selected protocol.
