10.9 Commissioning in EtherNet/IP network
Commissioning of the device is based on the procedure described below.
Assignment of IP network configuration
Assignment can be static or dynamic via DHCP. The SOPAS ET configuration software is
used to assign a static address or to activate dynamic address assignment, see "SOPAS
ET configuration software", page 46.
10.9.1 Project planning with EDS file
If supported by the controller, configuration using the EDS file is recommended. The
connection parameters of the Dx100 are predefined and the device parameters can be
set via the configuration assembly table (controller tag) or parameter table displayed in
the configuration tool. All device parameters of the configuration assembly are saved in
the controller when downloading the project. When the device is replaced, this makes
it possible to automatically transmit these device parameters from the controller to the
new device (exception: IP network configuration).
1. Install the EDS file in the device library of the configuration tool.
2. Add DL100 as a new module from the device library.
3. Enter module properties:
°
Module name
°
IP network configuration matching the configuration in the device see
"Assignment of IP network configuration", page 68.
°
Selection of the connection for the cyclic I/O data and the data type, e.g.
“Exclusive Owner Position”, data type DINT (see "Connection Manager Object
class (class code 06h)", page 57)
4. Set device parameters via the configuration assembly (controller tag) or parameter
table displayed in the configuration tool.
5. Transmit data to controller.
NOTE
If device parameters are changed via the display, SOPAS ET or explicit EtherNet/IP
message services, which are contained in the configuration assembly or the parameter
table, these are overwritten with the values stored in the controller when restarted.
10.9.2 Configuration as generic module
If the controller does not support EDS files, configuration is done as a generic module.
This requires manual entry of the connection parameters. Setting device parameters
via a configuration assembly to be created by the customer is preferable. All device
parameters of the configuration assembly are saved in the control when downloading
the project. When the device is replaced, this makes it possible to transmit all device
parameters from the control to the new device (exception: IP network configuration).
Configuration as generic device with configuration assembly:
1. Add generic Ethernet module as a new module from the device library.
2. Enter module properties:
°
Module name
°
IP network configuration matching the configuration in the device (see
"Assignment of IP network configuration", page 68)
°
Selection of the instance ID of the desired assemblies for the cyclic I/O data
and the configuration as well as the data type (see "Connection Manager
Object class (class code 06h)", page 57) e. g.:
10 ETHERNET/IP INTERFACE
