EtherNet/IP (CIP) driver settings
The EtherNet/IP (CIP) driver enables communication between
FactoryTalk Edge Gateway
and data sources using a
CIP™
network. When adding an EtherNet/IP driver to the gateway, configure these settings:EtherNet/IP driver settings | Description |
|---|---|
Driver Name | Defines the driver name. |
Driver IP Address | Displays the Ipv4 address to use for CIP communication. |
Driver Default Gateway IP Address | Displays the default gateway Ipv4 address to use for CIP communication. This setting is related to the Driver IP Address . |
ADVANCED | |
Driver IpV4 Net Mask | Displays the Network IPv4 mask to use for CIP communication. |
TIP:
If the computer where CIP adapter is running has multiple network interfaces, i.e. multiple IP addresses, ensure that the Driver IP Address and Driver Default Gateway IP Addess are configured correctly. That is, CIP adapter is 'sitting' on the same network as the target CIP devices.
Example:
Your computer have two network interfaces (i) 10.70.136.110, (ii) 192.168.1.10 and you want to communicate with CIP device available at 192.168.1.20, then the Driver IP Address must be set to 192.168.1.10.
