Setting up IP addresses
Communication between the IED and PCM600 is enabled from the LHMI. The IP
address and the corresponding communication subnetwork mask must be set via
the Ethernet configuration tool (ECT) for each available Ethernet interface in the
IED. Each Ethernet interface has a default factory IP address when the IED is
delivered. The IP adress and the subnetwork mask might have to be reset when an
additional Ethernet interface is installed or an interface is replaced.
DHCP is available for the front port, and a device connected to it can thereby
obtain an automatically assigned IP address via the local HMI path Main menu/
Configuration/Communication/Ethernet configuration/Front port/DHCP.
Alternatively the default IP address for the IED front port is 10.1.150.3 and the
corresponding subnetwork mask is 255.255.255.0, which can be set via the local
HMI path Main menu/Configuration/Communication/TCP-IP configuration/
ETHFRNT:1Main menu/Configuration/Communication/Ethernet
configuration/AP_FRONT.
Setting up the PC or workstation for point-to-point access to IEDs
front port
An ethernet cable (max 2 m length) with RJ-45 connectors is needed to connect
two physical Ethernet interfaces together without a hub, router, bridge or switch in
between.
If an IED is equipped with optical LC interface, a converter
between RJ-45 and LC is needed.
