Functional Description

The parameter Enable determines the point in time the Ethernet object is activated.

  • If the parameter Enable is set to off / 0, the Ethernet object is not activated when the controller is started.

    The Ethernet object can be activated at a later point in time by setting the value of the parameter to on / 1.

  • If the value of the parameter Enable is on / 1, the Ethernet object is activated when the controller is started.

    NOTE: Once the Ethernet object has been activated, it cannot be deactivated without a controller restart. If you try to deactivate the Ethernet object by setting the parameter value from on / 1 to off / 0, the value remains on /1 and the diagnostics message 8740 Device cannot be disabled is appended to the message logger list. Procedure for deactivating the Ethernet object:
    • Open the project.

    • Set the value of the parameter to off / 0.

    • Download the project.

    • Restart the controller.
