• Obtaining the IP Address from the BOOTP Server Each Time the Power Is T
urned ON
After the IP address settings are downloaded, the IP address from the BOOTP server is
automatically reflected in the NX-series EtherNet/IP Unit.
Each time the power supply is turned ON, the IP address from the BOOTP server is auto-
matically reflected in the NX-series EtherNet/IP Unit.
Additional Information
If the Unit cannot obtain the IP address from the BOOTP server or the obtained IP address is
not correct, select the Fixed setting Option in the IP Address Area and manually set the IP
address, subnet mask, and default gateway.
Requests to the BOOTP server for an IP address will continue if connecting to the BOOTP
server fails.
• Obtaining the IP Address from the BOOTP Server When the Power Is Turned ON and
Fixing at It
After the IP address settings are downloaded, the IP address from the BOOTP server is
automatically reflected in the Controller and set for Fixed setting
.
Additional Information
• The TCP/IP Settings Display is not updated even if the IP address is obtained normally from
the BOOTP server.
T
o check the IP address that was obtained from the BOOTP server, upload the project from
the NJ/NX-series Controller and check the Controller Status Pane.
• If you cannot obtain the IP address from the BOOTP server, the Fix at the IP address
obtained from BOOTP server Option is selected on the TCP/IP Settings Display.
To stop obtaining the IP address from the BOOTP server, select Fixed setting in the IP
Address Area and manually set the IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway.
• If the Controller power supply is turned OFF and then ON after the IP address was not nor-
mally obtained from the BOOTP server, the setting remains at Fix at the IP address
obtained from BOOTP server.
• After you select Fix at the IP address obtained from BOOTP server and download the IP
address from the BOOTP server, the EtherNet/IP port IP address setting is automatically set
to Fixed setting. Therefore, the IP address will not match when the program is verified on
the Sysmac Studio.
• To use the Packet Filter, you must allow packets (UDP:68) used for BOOTP. Refer to
8-4-4 Settings for Devices That Access the Controller on page 8-17 for details on the set-
tings.
Online Connection
Connect the Sysmac Studio online to the CPU Unit.
Additional Information
For the procedure to go online to the CPU Unit from the Sysmac Studio, refer to Online
Connections to a Controller in the Sysmac Studio Version 1 Operation Manual (Cat. No. W504).
