Connecting via Ethernet

Connecting via Ethernet

This section describes how to connect the controller to a computer with an Ethernet connection. When using
Ethernet communication, one computer can be connected to multiple controllers. One of the connected
controllers can be selected for communication. The communication protocol is TCP/IP, while the connection uses
peer-to-peer communication.

NoteNote

• Configure the settings so that there are different IP addresses used for the computer and each controller on the network.

• Operations are not guaranteed when connected through a router or a separate LAN connection.

• One computer cannot communicate with multiple controllers at the same time.

• Multiple computers cannot be connected to one controller.

Connecting

Connecting one controller directly to the computer

Use a commercial Ethernet cross cable (CAT 5) (OP-42275) for the connection.

Cross cable

Ethernet connector

Ethernet port

Connecting to two or more controllers

A 100BASE-TX or 10BASE-T hub is required to connect two or more controllers. Use commercial Ethernet

3 Select the device that is not recognized correctly on the device manager.

Look for a device with the "?" or "!" mark next to the name.

If the controller is not recognized correctly, it appears as one of the following:

• "?" or "!" mark next to "KEYENCE LJ-G (USB)"

• An "Unknown device"

If either of these devices is displayed, double-click on the device name. The property window for the

selected device is displayed.
