Refer to Appendix B for detailed information and an example on how to set up these parameters.
We recommend using Static IP (P9.48=0) and testing the communications between drive and
PC/PLC with either an Ethernet crossover cable or a simple Ethernet hub/switch. Do not try to
commission Ethernet communications for the first time on a larger, managed network.
Set P9.64 = 2 (bit 1) after changing any of these parameters to save the changes to the card firmware.
Appendix B details all the Implicit and Explicit data that can be transferred to and from the GS4.
Below is a list of the Implicit (I/O messaging) data that will be automatically transferred back and
forth between the PLC and drive once the connection is configured.
