Cause and
correction
Assumed cause Correction Prevention
The IP address of the EtherNet/IP
port is also used as the IP address
of another node
Perform either of the following and
then cycle the power supply to the
EtherNet/IP Coupler Unit or restart
the EtherNet/IP Coupler Unit.
• Check the IP addresses of other
nodes and correct the IP
address settings so that the
same address is not used by
more than one node.
• Remove the node that has the
duplicate IP address from the
network.
Set the IP address of the Ether-
Net/IP Coupler Unit so that the
same address is not used by
another node.
Attached
information
Attached information 1: Duplicated IP address (example: C0A8FA01 hex = address 192.168.250.1)
Precautions/
Remarks
When the EtherNet/IP Coupler Unit is started or the link of the EtherNet/IP port is established, an ARP
request is broadcasted with the set IP address. A duplicated address error occurs if there is an ARP
response from another node for this request.
