Chapter 5 Configure the I/O Modules
Set the IP Address in the Programming Software
If you are not using network address translation (NAT), type the IP address of
the module in the IP Address field. See the Allen-Bradley® Stratix® 5700
Network Address Translation (NAT) White Paper,
publication ENET-WP032
, for more information on NAT.
If you are using NAT, follow these steps:
1. In the IP Address field, type the IP address of the controller.
2. To open the Advanced Ethernet Settings dialog box, click Advanced.
3. Check the checkbox to indicate that this module and the controller
communicate through NAT devices.
4. Type the actual module address.
If you configured the IP address with the rotary switches, this address is
the address that you set on the module.
5. Click OK.
Change the Module Definition
Click Change to open the Module Definition dialog box, where you can select
values to configure what data and status tags to generate implicitly for the
safety module.
See these sections for settings explanations:
• Input Data Options on page 81
• Input Status Options on page 82
• Output Data Options on page 84
IMPORTANT When NAT is used in a safety application with a GuardLogix controller, the
module does not accept a safety connection unless the actual module
address is provided.
