5.7 Modbus TCP
Information
,
Network settings
This is the address assigned to the modules at
the moment of connection to the network.
It consists of four bytes, each of which can have value from 0 to 255. By default, allocation
is Dynamic. With dynamic allocation, the modules wait to receive the IP address from a
DHCP server. Without a DHCP server, the modules adopt an Autoconfiguration IP Address
in the range 169.254.xxx.xxx, calculated in a pseudo random manner so as to be the same
at every switch-on. Alternatively, you can enable the static IP address option, which allows
the IP address to be forced, in this case, you must make sure that the IP Address inserted
is different to that of the other devices connected to the same network
This is the subnet mask, and identifies the method to recognize the subnet to which the
modules belong, with the possibility of serching for the modules within a defined set of
recipients. If you enabled the option Static IP Address, you must also enter the correct
Network Mask.
The IP address of the node to which the module it is co
nnected, in the presence of
multiple subnets. If you enabled the Static IP Address option, you must also enter the
correct Gateway Address
