Use RSLinx Software to Set the IP Address of the Controller
You can use RSLinx software to set the IP address of the CompactLogix 5370
controller.
Complete these steps to set the IP address of the controller with RSLinx
software.
1. Make sure that a USB cable is connected to your computer and the
controller.
2. Start RSLinx software.
After several seconds, an RSWho dialog box appears.
3. If no RSWho dialog box appears, from the Communications pull-down
menu, choose RSWho.
The RSWho dialog box appears and includes the USB driver.
4. Right-click the EtherNet/IP module and choose Module
Configuration.
The Module Configuration dialog box appears.
IMPORTANT To set the IP address, that is, assign an IP address to a controller that does
not have one, for a CompactLogix 5370 controller via RSLinx software, you
must be connected to your controller via the USB port.
IMPORTANT These steps show a 1769-L36ERM controller. The same steps also apply to all
CompactLogix 5370 controllers with slight variations in screens.
