Installation Requirements
The following software and hardware tools are required to successfully install and configure the
1788-EN2PAR linking device.
Software Requirements
The following software is needed to operate the 1788-EN2PAR linking device:
• The RSLogix™ 5000 Add-on Profile AOP is required to configure and perform
diagnostics on the 1788-EN2PAR linking device.
• The Device Type Manager (catalog number 1788-EN2PAR DTM) is required for
Asset Management connectivity with field devices.
Hardware Requirements

• A PROFIBUS PA network using the IEC61158-2 cable color coding.
Configuration
Complete the following instructions to configure the 1788-EN2PAR linking device.
Configure the Ethernet Address
The module has BOOTP enabled when
shipped. You can set an address via a
BOOTP server or set the hardware
switches to a specific IP address. See Use
BOOTP to Set the IP Address on page
4, or Use Switches to Set the IP Address
on page 4 for details. The switches can be
found under the front cover of the
module.

Use BOOTP to Set the IP Address
1. Set the Ethernet switches to 888 (factory default).
2. Apply power to the linking device.
3. Set the IP address by using any BOOTP server.
4. Once the new IP address has been set, power down the linking device.
5. Return the switches to 000.
6. Apply power to the linking device.
Use Switches to Set the IP Address
To set the IP address of the linking device to the 192.168.1.xxx sub net, set the switches to the
required last three digits.
Add a 1788-EN2PAR Module in RSLogix 5000 Software
The module must be added to the RSLogix 5000 IO tree by selecting the 1788-EN2PAR
module (under an Allen-Bradley Ethernet bridge, such as EN2T).
1. Right-click the Ethernet bridge and choose New Module.
2. Expand the Hiprom Technologies option and select 1788-EN2PAR
The Module Properties dialog box appears.
3. Type the module’s Name, Description, IP Address, and RPI.
4. Click OK.
