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.
Rockwell Automation Publication 2100-IN090A-EN-P - February 2012
1. Start the BOOTP/DHCP software.
E3 Plus EtherNet/IP Adapter 5
2. Select Tool > Network Settings and enter the subnet mask for the network.
If appropriate for the network, enter the gateway address, primary/secondary server addresses, and domain name.
3. Click OK.
The Request History panel displays the hardware addresses of devices issuing BOOTP or DHCP requests.
4. Double-click the MAC address of the adapter to be configured.
The MAC address is printed on the side of the E3 Plus EtherNet/IP adapter. The format of the hardware address resembles 00:00:BC:59:72:5A. The New Entry dialog box appears with the module's Ethernet Address (MAC).

5. Enter the IP address for the adapter and, if appropriate, enter the host name and an adapter description.
6. Click OK.
Once the IP address you entered shows up in the Request History panel (you may need to cycle power to the adapter), this configuration can be permanently assigned to the adapter.
7. To do so, highlight the adapter in the Relation List panel and click Disable BOOTP/DHCP.
8. Confirm that the Status panel message reads, ‘[Disable BOOTP] Command successful’.
When the adapter power is recycled, it will use the assigned configuration and will not issue a BOOTP request. If you do not click Disable BOOTP/DHCP, the adapter clears the current IP configuration after a power cycle and will again begin sending BOOTP requests.

Install EDS File

Before the E3 Plus EtherNet/IP adapter is configured to communicate on an EtherNet/IP network, it must be registered to the software that configures the network, for example, RSLinx Classic software. You can register the adapter by installing an electronic data sheet (EDS file). For the E3 Plus EtherNet/IP adapter, you will install an EDS file for the device that is connected to the adapter. Use the following procedure to download and reg ister the EDS file for the E3 Plus EtherNet/IP adapter.

Download EDS file from the EDS Website

The EDS file for the device connected to the E3 Plus EtherNet/IP adapter can be found at
http://www.rockwellautomation.com/resources/eds/.
1. When the web page for the link above comes up, enter the following information.
E3 Plus Overload 825-P
Network EtherNet/IP EtherNet/IP
Device Type Motor Protector Motor Protector
Bulletin/Catalog No. 2100-ENET 2100-ENET

2. Select the file that relates to the E3 or 825-P module that is connected to the 2100-ENET unit.
3. In the Details & Download column for the device, select Download.
4. Click Save to save the EDS file to your personal computer.

Register the EDS File

After the EDS file has been downloaded, you need to register the EDS file with the software that configures the EtherNet/IP network. Follow these steps to register an EDS file with RSLinx Classic software.
1. Start the EDS Hardware Installation Tool at Start->Programs->Rockwell Software->RSLinx->Tools.
2. Click Add to register a new device.

Logix Controller I/O Messaging

RSLogix 5000 software is used to configure I/O messaging between a Logix controller and an E3 Plus EtherNet/IP adapter on an EtherNet/IP network. Follow these steps to configure a Logix controller for I/O messaging.
1. Right-click on the EtherNet/IP scanner in I/O Configuration and select New Module to open the Select Module Type dialog box.
2. Select Generic Ethernet Module and click OK.
3. Enter a name for the E3 Plus EtherNet/IP adapter.
The name creates a tag in RSLogix 5000 software that can be used to read and write data from the E3 Plus EtherNet/IP adapter.
Rockwell Automation Publication 2100-IN090A-EN-P - February 2012

IMPORTANT
4. Select Data-INT for the Comm Format.
The Comm Format tells RSLogix 5000 software the format of the data. The Data-INT format represents the data from the E3 Plus EtherNet/IP adapter as a field of 16-bit values.
5. Set the Connection Parameters.
I/O data is accessed using Input Instance 100 and Output Instance 103 (for E3 standard) or 105 (for E3 Plus) by default.
If you have already changed the Input and Output Assemblies, you will need to enter those values instead of the default values.
The size of the input connection and the output connection shall correspond to the size of the chosen instance. For Instance 100, the size is 6. For Instances 103 and 105, the size is 1. The E3 Plus EtherNet/IP adapter Configuration Assembly Instance is 6. Currently, the 2100-ENET adapter does not support the configuration assembly.
