Enter the new IP Address and click on the [Set] button. This will update
the IP Address of the MLX200 Control Module. The Control Module
should be rebooted for the IP Address change to take effect. Rebooting
the Control Module can be done as described in Section 7.2.4 “Rebooting
the MLX200 Control Module”.
7.2.4 Rebooting the MLX200 Control Module
If the IP Address of the MLX200 Control Module is
changed, the new IP Address should also be updated in the
MLX200 Control Module Communications section of the
RSLogix project for the PLC, as outlined in Section 2.2.1.2
“Configuring an MLX200 Control Module Communication”
on page 2-8. If this is not done, the MLX200 Control Module
will fail to establish communication with the PLC after its IP
Address is changed.
Rebooting the MLX200 Control Module should be performed only after
ensuring that the Control Module is not actively controlling a running
robot cell. Failure to do so might result in sudden stoppage of the cell
which could lead to equipment damage.
