3.1 Preparing the switch
A prerequisite for the proper configuration of the Service Bridge is that the XC-200
Switch is initially in the as-supplied state, i.e. reset to factory settings. In addition, at
least firmware version V4.0 is required for the service bridge configuration.
In section 3.3 of this manual, you can find information on how to check the
firmware version and carry out any updating that may be required.
Restoring to factory settings
If the Switch is not in the as-supplied state, it can be reset to factory settings with
the "SELECT/SET" button. If the "SELECT/SET" button is disabled, this can only
be done during device startup.
1. Power down the device.
2. Now press the "SELECT/SET" button and reconnect the voltage supply to the
device while holding down the button.
3. Keep the button pressed until the red "F" fault LED stops flashing and switches
to continuous light.
4. Release the button and wait for the "F" fault LED to go out again.
5. The device restarts automatically with factory settings.
You can download the pre-set configuration file at the following link:

The download of firmware version V4.0 can be found under the following link:

3.2 Assigning an IP address
An XC-200 switch that is reset to factory settings has no network parameters (IP
address/name). To access Web Based Management (WBM) in later steps, an IP
address must be assigned to the switch that is to be used as a service bridge.
There are several ways to assign an IP address to an unconfigured device:
DHCP
PRONETA
Primary Setup Tool (PST)
STEP 7 - SIMATIC Manager
CLI (Command Line Interface) via the serial interface
For the Service Bridge, it is recommended to assign an IP address from a IP
address range other than that of the plant bus.
