Prepare the Device to Be Recognized

Overview

The aim of this step is to configure the IP address assignment method of the device to be in accordance with that configured for the network planning.

This can be done during:

othe commissioning phase.

oa device replacement.

Depending on the device, different tools can be used:

oMachine Assistant

oScrewdriver: for devices with rotary switch, dip switch, …(example: OTB)

oKeypad (example: ATV)

oPC, for devices that have to be configured with:

oEcoStruxure Machine Expert

oThird-party software

oIts Web server (example: OsiSense XGCS)

Depending on the IP address assignment, different actions can be done:

oDHCP: configure the DHCP device name in the device.

oBOOTP: refer to Device Configured in BOOTP.

oFixed IP: configure the IP address in the device.

If using EtherNet/IP, and using Electronic Keying, verify whether it is correctly configured.

Main Device Configuration Method

Tool	IP address assignment method	Description
None	DHCP	The device is pre-configured in DHCP with the correct DHCP device name
Screwdriver	DHCP	Use a screwdriver on the device (rotary switch, dip switch, …) to configure the DHCP device name. Example: Advantys OTB.
	BOOTP	Use a screwdriver on the device (rotary switch, dip switch, …) in BOOTP. Example: XPSMCM.
	Fixed IP	Use a screwdriver on the device (rotary switch, dip switch, …) to configure the IP address.
Keypad	DHCP	Use the keypad of the device to configure DHCP device name. Example: ATV32.
	BOOTP	Use the keypad of the device to configure the device in BOOTP.
	Fixed IP	Use the keypad of the device to configure IP address.
PC, tablet, …	DHCP BOOTP Fixed IP	Use PC or tablet to connect to the Device Web server and configure the network settings. Choose a connection method: oConnect the PC to an Ethernet port of the device The current IP address of the device must be known. oConnect a WIFER TCSEGWB13FA0 to an Ethernet port of the device. Connect the PC to the WIFER.
PC	DHCP BOOTP Fixed IP	Use EcoStruxure Machine Expert (via DTM) to configure the network settings. Connect the PC to a dedicated communication port of the device. Example: Modbus serial line port of ATV32. For details, refer to Using DTMs to Configure Devices on Modbus Serial Line.
PC	DHCP BOOTP Fixed IP	Use third-party software to configure the network settings. Choose a connection method: oConnect the PC to an Ethernet port of the device The current IP address of the device must be known. oConnect the PC to a dedicated communication port of the device.
You may have to perform a device power cycle for parameter modifications to take affect.

Device Configured in BOOTP

If the device IP address assignment is BOOTP, you must use EcoStruxure Machine Expert:

oSet the MAC address of the new device,

oLoad the new application in the controller.
