Use the setting tool (EH-ETH2 Configurator) for communication setting.
Note that the ladder software (Control Editor) is used for setting up the environment of the External Device.
Please refer to the manual of the EH-ETH2 for more details.
1. Assign the Ethernet unit to CPU unit by using [I/O assign] in the ladder software.
2. Turn ON the DIP Switch 1 and 6 of
the Ethernet unit, and turn ON the power. Then, a temporary address (192.168.0.4)
for accessing the Ethernet unit will be set.
