Communication Settings
Network related communication settings are grouped in the Network Configuration Object (04h), and includes:
IP settings | These settings must be set properly in order for the module to be able to participate on the network. The module supports DHCP, which may be used to retrieve the IP settings from a DHCP-server automatically. DHCP is enabled by default, but can be disabled if necessary. |
Physical Link Settings | By default, the module uses auto negotiation to establish the physical link settings, however it is possible to force a specific setting if necessary. |
The parameters in the Network Configuration Object (04h) are available from the host application and the network through the built in web server, and through the TCP/IP Interface Object (CIP).
