• Port 34159 (communication status verification) cannot be used.
ConnectionLimitation(Releasenumber3(Version3.02)andlater)
• Connection can be limited using the port limitation setting command (SDarwinPortLimit).
• When port limitation is on, the limitation is the same as that of DARWIN. When connected
via Ethernet, only instantaneous data reading is possible on port number 34151.
Configuration, control, and operation are not possible. When connected via serial, only
the commands that can be used on a Ethernet connection through port 34150 are valid.
• When port limitation is off (default value), there are no limitations on commands on either
port. All supported commands work on both ports.
• For details on communication commands, see the Communication Interface User’s
Manual (IM 04L51B01-17EN).

Procedure to Use the GX/GP
Ethernet: Set the GX/GP IP address, subnet mask, and the like.
Align the GX/GP configuration to DARWIN.
• Connect expandable I/Os.
• Install modules.
For the setting procedure (Ethernet), see “DARWIN” in section
1.21.9, “Setting the Server Functions to Use (FTP, HTTP, SNTP,
MODBUS, GENE, DARWIN).”
For the setting procedure, see section 1.21.1, “Setting
Basic Communication Conditions.”
As necessary, configure the GX/GP functions
according to DARWIN.
Make the GX/GP recognize the modules.
For setting procedure, see section 1.
For the setting procedure, see section 1.29.2,
“Reconfiguring the GX/GP.”
