2.2c.3 Verify that Your Host Controller is Disconnected from the SMD17E2
EtherNet/IP is not a multi-master protocol. There can be only one bus master on the network at a time. In
order to program the SMD17E2, the AMCI Net Configurator utility must act as a bus master. Therefore,
physically disconnect your host controller from the SMD17E2 before starting the Net Configurator utility.
2.2c.4 Apply or Cycle Power to the SMD17E2
Cycling power to the SMD17E2 will reset any connections it may have with the host controller.
2.2c.5 Start the AMCI Net Configurator Utility
Double click on the utility’s icon. A welcome screen similar to the one in figure T2.3 below will appear.
