Change the Network IP Address with an SD Card
You can use an SD card to change the IP address for a CompactLogix 5370
controller when controller power is cycled. Using the SD card to change the IP
address removes the need for software to complete this task.
These requirements apply when using the SD card to change the IP address on a
CompactLogix 5370 controller:
• A project is stored on the SD card.
• The project that is stored on the SD card includes another IP address for
the CompactLogix 5370 controller than the IP address currently in use on
the physical controller that houses the SD card.
• The project that is stored on the SD card is configured with the Load
Image parameter set to On Power Up.
• Power is cycled to the controller with the SD card installed.
For more information on using the SD card, see Chapter 12, Use a Secure Digital
Card on page 297.
IMPORTANT
To set the IP address from an SD card, software is not required during the
power-up process. However, you must have previously saved the project to the
SD card.
