Wiring rules for disabled autonegotiation
With auto crossover (MDIX) turned off, the EIP-200S ports are set as follows:
●
Port 1 - normal (straight-through) pin assignment
●
Port 2 - crossed over pin assignment
Crossed over pin assignment means that the pin assignment for the ports for sending and
receiving between devices is exchanged internally.

Replacing a faulty QuickConnect Adapter
In case of QuickConnect Adapter failure, follow this process to replace the EIP-200S
Ethernet/IP Adapter:
1.
Prepare and mount the replacement Adapter.
2.
Do one of the following:
–
Transfer the SD card from the old device to the replacement device. Power up the
device so it will read the SD card and set the configuration in nonvolatile memory, OR
–
Power up the replacement device. Configure the replacement Adapter's IP address
using DHCP, or set a fixed IP address. Then use the Configuration Tool to turn off
autonegotiation, set a fixed baud rate and duplex, and turn QuickConnect on as
described in the section "Guidelines for using QuickConnect on your network".
3.
The replacement module is now ready for QuickConnect power-up.

Troubleshooting and optimization
Delayed connection time
Many factors can cause the controller connection time to be greater than 268 ms. These
factors include the following:
●
RPI (I/O cycle time)
●
Time slice percentage
●
Timer set in the application logic
●
Ethernet/IP traffic
●
Controller task load
If the optimum connection time cannot be achieved with the recommended settings, you may
need to evaluate alternate Ethernet/IP configurations or controller requirements.
