Introduction
The E3 Plus EtherNet/IP adapter is a linking device that lets users connect an E3 or E3 Plus
Solid State Overload or an 825-P Motor Protection System directly to an EtherNet/IP network.
This document explains the basic steps needed to configure the E3 Plus EtherNet/IP adapter.

Set the IP Network Address
The E3 Plus EtherNet/IP adapter is shipped with Bootstrap Protocol (BOOTP) enabled. You
can set the network Internet Protocol (IP) address by using the BOOTP/DHCP server that is
provided with RSLinx Classic software. This utility recognizes BOOTP-enabled devices and
provides an interface to configure a static IP address for each device.
To assign network parameters via the BOOTP/DHCP utility, perform this procedure.
