Programmer Connection, Ethernet TCP/IP

Connecting your programmer via an Ethernet

TCP/IP network requires installation of an Ethernet

Interface module in the PLC.  This can be either the

Ethernet Controller, IC697CMM741. or Ethernet

Interface (Type 2), IC697CMM742.  Before connecting

your programmer and PLC to the Ethernet TCP/IP

network you must set the IP address in the Ethernet

Interface.  After setting the IP address, connect the

PLC and the programmer running Windows software

to the Ethernet Interface.  For more detailed

information on the programmer connection via

Ethernet TCP/IP, refer to the TCP/IP Ethernet

Communications (Type 2) User’s Manual, and the

Windows programming manual, GFK-1295.

The CPU verifies the actual module

and rack configuration at power-up and periodically

during operation. The actual configuration must be

the same as the programmed configuration.  Devi

ations are reported to the CPU alarm processor func

tion for configured fault response.  Consult Reference

1 for a description of configuration functions.
