2 Establishing the Connection Between PC and XC600

This section describes the necessary steps for connecting the PC to

the XC600 PLC.

Communication is implemented via an Ethernet connection. The

PC must be equipped with an Ethernet module in order for it to be

connected to the network.

Requirements of the Ethernet module in the PC

• Hardware Interface Standard

– PCI bus specification V 2.1, V 2.2

• RJ 45 plug connector for the Ethernet interface

• Ethernet Standard

– IEEE 802.3 10 OMSE-T/100 OMSE-TX

– CSMA/CD protocol

Configuring the Ethernet module

The incorporation of the Ethernet module in the PC configuration

is primarily carried out by the operating system. Only a few

settings need to be made. These depend on the operating system

used. The following description is based on the Windows 95 oper-

ating system. The system description provides the necessary infor-

mation when another operating system is used.

First specify the IP (network) address of the module. It must not be

the same as the IP address of the PLC.

Specifying the IP address

X In Windows 95 choose Control Panel r Network and select the

Ethernet module.

X Click on Properties and then the Bindings tab.

X Activate the protocolTCP/IP.

X Click OK to return to the Network window (a Fig. 30).

X Double-click the protocol ”TCP/IP... Fast Ethernet Adapter”.

This will open the Properties for TCP/IP window:

X Activate the Specify IP Address option and enter the address,

e.g. 192.168.119.37.

The IP address consists of four groups with the three-digit decimal

numbers that are separated by a period character. You can enter

numbers from 192.168.119.0 to 192.168.119.255 as the address.

The first three groups must match the default address in the

XC600. The numbers of the last group must be different:

X Enter the default mask 255.255.255.0 of the XC600 in the

Subnet Mask field.

X Click OK to confirm your entry.
