Rockwell Automation Publication IASIMP-QS024C-EN-P - August 2014 43
Chapter 3
Configure the EtherNet/IP Network
In this chapter, you assign an IP address to your CompactLogix 5370 L1 controller.
This quick start does not describe how to use other devices on the EtherNet/IP network. It is common to use other devices
on an EtherNet/IP network in a CompactLogix 5370 L1 control system. If you were to do so, for example, use a PanelView
Plus terminal on an EtherNet/IP network, you must assign an IP address to those devices.
Not all tasks that are described in this quick start are required to complete the final task, that is, use ladder logic to test a
1734-OB4E output module as described beginning on page 47
. For example, you do not need to install an
EtherNet/IP network to connect to a CompactLogix 5370 L3 controller because you can do so over a USB cable.
We expect that you can attempt to complete additional tasks with your control system by using the publications that are listed on
page 11
relating to using a component over an EtherNet/IP network in a Logix5000 control system. When you use those
publications, some assumptions are made. For example, if you use POINT I/O modules over an EtherNet/IP network in a
CompactLogix 5370 L1 control system, you must have created a Logix Designer project and have an IP address that is assigned to
the controller.
If you complete all tasks that are described in this chapter, you can easily complete the tasks that are described in the publications
that are listed on page 11
related to using an EtherNet/IP network.
