Create generic I/O module and connect the drive to the control system
To connect the drive to a control system via Ethernet, proceed as follows:
1. Connect the drive to the control system via an Ethernet cable.
2. In your control, create a generic I/O module with Ethernet/IP functionality:
– Insert a new module in your control system.
– Select a generic Ethernet module from the selection.
– Enter the network parameters for the newly inserted module (IP address, subnet
mask, standard gateway, station name).
3. For the generic I/O module, enter the lengths of the process data for cyclic
communication, which you have selected in STARTER, r2067[0] (input), r2067[1]
(output), for example: Standard telegram 2/2.
In the STARTER telegram configuration, read out the length of the process data for all
drive objects (for input and output) - and add them (see PROFIdrive "Telegrams and
process data (Page 221)").
– Input 101:
Here, enter the sum of all input process data of your drive objects from STARTER.
– Output 102:
Here, enter the sum of all output process data of your drive objects from STARTER.
– Configuration 103:
Here, you generally enter the value 0 or 1.
4. In STARTER, set the same values for IP address, subnet mask, standard gateway and
the name station as in the control system (see Chapter "Configuring communication
(Page 286)").
Furthermore, you can find a detailed description of how to create a generic I/O module on
the following Internet page:
(Creating a generic I/O module

Routing and shielding Ethernet cables
You can find information on how to do this on the following Internet page:
Ethernet IP (https://www.odva.org/Publication-Download).
Commissioning the drive in an EtherNet/IP network
To commission the drive, connect the drive via an interface (depending on the Control Unit
type: PROFIBUS, PROFINET, Ethernet, etc) with your computer, on which the STARTER
with version ≥ 4.5 is installed.
