• be located in the same subnet as the F 8627 module.
• have an IP address in one of the following ranges:
• from 192.168.0.201 to 192.168.0.214 or

Exception: If the PADT (PC) is simultaneously used as an OPC server
and already has own one of the OPC server IP addresses, it also can
also use this IP address.
If several network cards are available on the PADT (PC), a corre-
sponding routing entry must be set for the network card which is used
for connection to the F 8627.
OS versions
≥ V4.x
Any free IP address for the PADT may be used. If the PADT IP
addresses of the PADT and the F 8627X are located in different sub-
nets, a routing entry for the subnet of the F 8627X is required on the
PADT (PC).
The next step causes a communication loss, if no redundant F 8627X
