Chapter 1 Getting Started

Features The features of the built-in EtherNet/IP adapter include the following:

• Switches are used to set an IP address before power is applied to the
drive. Other methods are also available to configure the IP address:

- Interface parameters

- BOOTP (Bootstrap Protocol) server

- DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) server

• Indicators that report the status of the built-in EtherNet/IP adapter and
network communication. They are visible when the drive cover is open or
closed.

• Controller hierarchy that can be configured to transmit data to and from
a controller.

• Parameter-configured 32-bit datalinks in the I/O to meet application
requirements: 16 datalinks to write data from the network to the drive,
and 16 datalinks to read data to the network from the drive.

• Explicit Messaging support.

• User-defined fault actions to determine how the built-in
EtherNet/IP adapter and its host drive respond to the following:

- I/O messaging communication disruptions (Comm Flt Action)

- Controllers in Program mode (Idle Flt Action)

- Message (MSG) instructions for drive control via PCCC or the

Common Industrial Protocol (CIP™) based network Assembly Object
(Msg Flt Action)

• Automatic Device Configuration (ADC) and Studio 5000 Logix
Designer® application feature, which supports the automatic download
of configuration data.

Dual Ethernet Ports

Dual Ethernet ports provide connection for star, linear, or Device Level Ring
(DLR) network topologies.

Examples of different EtherNet/IP network topologies are shown in Figure 1

Figure 2

applicable to PowerFlex drives with TotalFORCE® technology with the built-in
Ethernet/IP adapter. For information about linear and Device Level Ring
(DLR) topologies, see EtherNet/IP built-in Switch Technology,
publication ENET-AP005

, and Figure 3. These examples show a PowerFlex 755T drive, but are

.

IMPORTANT

The adapter has EtherNet/IP built-in switch technology, and ENET1 and
ENET2 network ports to connect to a linear or Device Level Ring (DLR)
network in a subnet.

You cannot use the ENET1 and ENET2 network ports as two network
interfaces that are connected to two different Internet Protocol (IP)
subnets.

Required Equipment Some required equipment that is used with the built-in EtherNet/IP adapter is

shipped with the drive. The sections that follow describe some of the other
user-supplied equipment that is also required.

Equipment Shipped with the Drive

Because the EtherNet/IP adapter is built in the main control board in the drive,
it is always a part of the drive. There are no separate physical installation
instructions for the interface.

User-supplied Equipment

To configure the built-in EtherNet/IP adapter, you must supply the following:

• A small screwdriver for setting the network address switches.

• An Ethernet cable.

• An Ethernet switch (see Choose an Ethernet Switch

• A computer connection to the EtherNet/IP network.

on page 13).

See the EtherNet/IP Media Planning and Installation Manual, available from the
Open DeviceNet® Vendor Association (ODVA) at https://www.odva.org
details on how to use the required media components and how to plan for
install, verify, troubleshoot, and certify your EtherNet/IP network.

Chapter 1 Getting Started

Choose an Ethernet Switch

If the built-in EtherNet/IP adapter is used to communicate with a controller
that has multicast connections, a managed switch that supports IGMP
snooping is suggested. EtherNet/IP implicit (I/O) messaging can be
configured to use IP multicast to distribute I/O control data, which is
consistent with the CIP-based network Producer/Consumer model. If multiple
built-in EtherNet/IP adapters are connected to the switch in a redundant
configuration, a managed switch is required. A managed switch also provides
useful diagnostic features such as port mirroring.

The built-in EtherNet/IP adapter supports unicast connections. Unicast is the
default setting when adding the drive to the I/O controller. When all built-in
EtherNet/IP adapters are installed as unicast devices, then an IGMP snooping
(managed) switch is not needed.

The choice of a switch involves many factors. See Ethernet Reference Manual
publication ENET-RM002
switches from Rockwell Automation, see the Stratix® Industrial Networks
Infrastructure At-a-Glance, publication ENET-QR001

for details. For more information about industrial

Safety Precautions Read the following safety precautions carefully.

ATTENTION: Risk of injury or equipment damage exists.

• Only personnel familiar with drive and power products and the associated
machinery can plan or implement the installation, start up, configuration. Only
qualified personnel can perform subsequent maintenance of the drive by using
this built-in interface. Failure to comply can result in injury and/or equipment
damage.

• The built-in adapter contains electrostatic discharge (ESD) sensitive parts that
can be damaged if you do not follow ESD control procedures. ESD control
precautions are required when handling the interface. If you are unfamiliar with
ESD control procedures, see Guarding Against Electrostatic Damage,
publication 8000-SB001

• When a system is configured for the first time, unintended or incorrect machine
motion can occur. Disconnect the motor from the machine or process during
initial system testing.

Setting the IP Address There are four ways to configure the built-in EtherNet/IP adapter IP address:

• Interface Rotary Switches — Use the switches when working on a

simple, isolated network (with IP addresses in the range, 192.168.1.xxx),
and you prefer a simplified node addressing method that has other
products with switches to set their IP addresses. See Use Switches to Set

the IP Address on page 16.

• Interface Parameters — Use interface parameters for more flexibility

when configuring the IP address. To use parameters as the source for the
IP address, set the rotary switches to 999. Set 0:300 - [Net Addr Sel] to ‘1’
(Parameters). The IP address, subnet mask, and gateway address come
from the values set using the associated interface 0:302...313. See Use

Interface Parameters to Set the IP Address on page 21.

• BOOTP — Use BOOTP when you want to configure an IP address, subnet

mask, and gateway address for the interface by using a BOOTP server. To
use BOOTP as the source for the IP address, set the rotary switches to

999. Set 0:300 - [Net Addr Sel] to ‘2’ (BOOTP).
See Using a BOOTP or DHCP Server

• DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) Use DHCP when you

want to configure an IP address, subnet mask, and gateway address for
the interface by using a DHCP server. To use DHCP as the source for the
IP address, set the rotary switches to 999.
Set 0:300 - [Net Addr Sel] to ‘3’ (DHCP).
See Using a BOOTP or DHCP Server

on page 23 for details.

on page 23 for details.

IMPORTANT

Regardless of the method that is used to set the interface IP address, each
node on the EtherNet/IP network must have a unique IP address. To
change an IP address, you must set the new value and then remove and
reapply power to (or reset) the interface.

Use Switches to Set the IP Address

Figure 4 - Setting the IP Address Switches

The three interface switches are grouped near the middle of the drive. These
switches are read when the drive powers up, and represent three decimal
digits from top to bottom. If set to a valid address (001…254), the interface uses
that value as the last octet of its IP address (192.168.1.xxx, where xxx = the

16 Rockwell Automation Publication 750COM-UM009B-EN-P - April 2021

Chapter 2 Configure the Adapter

rotary switch settings), along with a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0 and a
gateway address of 192.168.1.1. Also, the setting for interface 0:300 - [Net Addr
Sel] is automatically ignored.

Table 1 - IP Address Switches Settings

Settings Description

001…254

Any other setting Reserved.

The adapter uses the rotary switch settings for the IP address (192.168.1.xxx, where xxx = the rotary
switch settings). The value that is stored in 0: 300 - [Net Addr Sel] is automatically ignored.

Resets the adapter IP address and other EtherNet/IP communication settings to factory defaults.
Thereafter, the drive must be powered down, the switches set to a correct value (001…254 or 999),
and then the drive must be powered up again to accept the new address.

Disables the rotary switches, and requires using one of the following:

• 0:300 - [Net Addr Sel] selects the source for the interface IP address, which is one of the

following:
–Adapter Parameters
– BOOTP server (default)
– DHCP server firmware

Connecting the Interface to the Network

IMPORTANT

When using the interface rotary switches, set the IP address before power
is applied because the interface uses the switch settings that it detects
when it first receives power.

The switch settings can be verified by viewing Port 0 Diagnostic Item number
68, see Table 21 on page 78

with any of the following drive configuration tools:

• 20-HIM-A6 and 20-HIM-C6S for PowerFlex 755T drives

• Integrated touch screen display (eHIM) or standard HIM (20-750-CS6)
for PowerFlex 6000T drives.

• Connected Components Workbench software, release 11 or later.

Also, you can use 0:301 - [Net Addr Src], a read-only parameter, to verify the
active setting for 0:300 - [Net Addr Sel].

ATTE NT IO N: Risk of injury or death exists. The PowerFlex drive can contain high
voltages that can cause injury or death. Remove power from the drive, and then
verify that power has been discharged before connecting the built-in EtherNet/IP
adapter to the network. Verify that the DC bus has been discharged.

1. Remove power from the drive and discharge any stored power.

2. To access the drive control pod, open the drive door.

3. Use electrostatic discharge (ESD) control precautions.

4. Connect one end of an Ethernet cable to the network.

See Figure 5

Rockwell Automation Publication 750COM-UM009B-EN-P - April 2021 17

for an example of wiring to an EtherNet/IP network.

ATTENTION: Risk of equipment damage, injury, or death exists.

• Unpredictable operation can occur if you fail to verify that parameter settings are
compatible with your application. Verify that settings are compatible with your
application before power is applied to the drive.

• Wear personal protective equipment (PPE) to avoid death or injury when applying
power with the drive door open.

1. Close the cabinet door for the drive.

2. Apply power to the drive.

The built-in EtherNet/IP adapter receives its power from the drive.

ATTENTION: Risk of injury or equipment damage exists. When a system is
configured for the first time, there can be unintended or incorrect machine
motion. Disconnect the motor from the machine or process during initial
system testing.

3. Check the status indicators either by using status parameters, HIM
status, or the software tool status.

When you apply power to the built-in EtherNet/IP adapter for the first
time, its EtherNet/IP status indicator is steady green or flashes green
after an initialization.

If it is red or remains off, see Start-up Status Indications on page 18

.

Start-up Status Indications

After power is applied, the drive STS (status) indicator and the built-in
EtherNet/IP adapter ENET, LNK1, and LNK2 status indicators can be
monitored via status parameters, HIM status, and the software tool status. If
personal protective equipment is worn, you can also view status indicators on

Configuring and Verifying Key Drive Parameters

The drive can be separately configured for the command logic and reference
functions in various combinations. For example, you could set the drive to
have the logic command come from a peripheral or terminal block but have the
reference come from the network. Or you could set the drive to have its control
come from the network with the reference that comes from another peripheral
or terminal block. Or you could set the drive to have both its logic command
and reference come from the network.

The following steps in this section assume that the drive receives the logic
command and reference from the network.

1. To access the required parameters in this procedure, verify that drive

parameter 0:30 - [Access Level] is set to ‘1’ (Advanced) or ‘2’ (Expert).

2. To set the drive velocity reference, use drive 10:1800 - [VRef A Sel].

a. Set the Port field to ‘10 - Pri MtrSideCtrl’ as shown.
b. Set the Parameter field to point to Port 0, which contains the

EtherNet/IP adapter.

c. Then choose Parameter 211 [Emb Enet Ref].

3. Verify that drive 10:350 - [VRef Source] matches your entry to 10:1800
[VRef A Sel].

Any velocity reference that is commanded from the network can be
monitored by using 0:1914 - [VRef Command]. If a problem occurs, this
verification step provides the diagnostic capability to determine whether
the drive, interface, or the network is the cause.

4. If hard-wired discrete digital inputs are not used to control the drive,
verify that all unused digital input drive parameters are set to ‘0’ (Not
Used). These parameters are located in Port 0, in the file Feedback and I/
O, group Command.

parameters instead, you must first change the source for the node address to
Parameters by using 0:300 - [Net Addr Sel]. Set the associated interface
parameters as described in the following subsections.

Using a HIM to Access Parameters

If your drive has a HIM, it can be used to access parameters in the interface.

From the Status screen (20-HIM-A6 or 20-HIM-C6S) or the Dashboard
Parameters tab (eHIM), navigate to Port 0 where the built-in EtherNet/IP
adapter resides.

From the Port 0, you can set the source for the network address, set the
IP address, subnet mask, and gateway address.

For details on how to view and edit parameters, see PowerFlex 20-HIM-A6/­C6S HIM (Human Interface Module) User Manual,
publication 20HIM-UM001

.

Change the Source for the Network Address

1. Verify that the IP address switches, see Table 1 on page 17 are set to 999.

2. Set the value of 0:300 - [Net Addr Sel] to ‘1’ (Parameters).

3. Reset the interface by cycling power or by using the HIM as described in

Using a BOOTP or DHCP Server

There are various BOOTP and DHCP servers available. The following
instructions use the Rockwell Automation BOOTP/DHCP Server. This is a free
standalone program that incorporates the functionality of standard BOOTP
and DHCP utilities with a graphical interface page installed automatically as
part of the RSLinx® software. It is available at the Product Compatibility and
Download Center (PCDC) at rok.auto/pcdc

. From the website, choose the ‘Find
Downloads’ link and search for the word ‘BOOTP’). See the Read-me file and
online Help for directions and more information.

If the PowerFlex 6000T, 755TM, 755TR, or 755TL drive is connected to a
Stratix 6000 or Stratix 8000 managed Ethernet switch and the drive is set
for BOOTP or DHCP mode, the ‘dynamic IP address assignment by port’
(Stratix 6000) or ‘DHCP persistence’ (Stratix 8000) feature can be used to
set the IP address for the drive. For more details, see the Stratix 6000

When the DHCP lease expires, the adapter stops communicating on the
network. A power cycle or option module reset is required.

1. Depending on the type of server (BOOTP or DHCP) being used, set 0:300

- [Net Addr Sel] to either ‘2’ (BOOTP) or ‘3’ (DHCP) respectively.

2. Make note of the Ethernet Address (MAC) of the interface hardware,
which is used in step 5

.

There are two ways to find the media access control (MAC) address:

• Remove the drive cover and locate the hardware Ethernet Address

label on the main control board of the drive (Figure 7

• Use the HIM to access drive Port 0 and access the built-in EtherNet/IP

adapter DIAGNOSTIC folder screen. Then scroll to Diagnostic Items
43…48 (HW Addr 1…6) to view the hardware Ethernet Address (MAC) of
the interface. Finally, convert these decimal values to hex values.
The eHIM uses local subnet to detect the drive connected to the Stratix
switch. You are able to view the drive profile and change the IP address
in the Device Definition page within the overview tab.

3. On a computer that is connected to the EtherNet/IP network, start the
BOOTP/DHCP software.

4. Edit the Network Settings to match your network.

Optional - the address of the primary Domain Name Service (DNS) server that is used to
locate devices on the network by name instead of by IP address.

Optional - the address of the secondary DNS server to be used on the local end of the link
for negotiating with remote devices when the primary DNS server is unavailable.

Optional - The text name that corresponds to the network containing the BOOTP/DHCP
server and the drive being configured.

5. In the BOOTP/DHCP Request History list, either double-click the
Ethernet Address (MAC) of the interface noted in step 2

, or click New in

the Relation List.

6. Edit the following:

Box Type

IP address A unique IP address for the interface
Host Name Optional - a text name for the drive being configured
Description Optional - text to describe the device that is saved only in the BOOTP/DHCP software

7. After the BOOTP/DHCP Server has provided an IP address, to assign this
configuration permanently to the interface, select the device in the
Relation List, and click Disable BOOTP/DHCP.

When power is cycled on the interface, it uses the configuration that you
assigned it and does not issue new BOOTP or DHCP requests.

8. From the File menu, choose Save to save the Relation List.

Setting the Data Rate By default, the interface is set to autodetect, so it automatically detects the data

rate and duplex setting that is used on the network. If you must set a specific
data rate and duplex setting, use the 0:314 - [Net Rate Cfg 1] and 0:316 - [Net
Rate Cfg 2] values. These values determine the Ethernet data rate and duplex
settings that the interface uses to communicate.

1. Verify that the Ethernet cable is connected to Ethernet port 1 or port 2 to
change the data rate or duplex setting. Port 1 is the connector closest to
the front edge of the control board.

2. Set the value of 0:314 - [Net Rate Cfg 1] or 0:316 - [Net Rate Cfg 2] to the
data rate at which your network is operating.

4 100 Mbps Half

24 Rockwell Automation Publication 750COM-UM009B-EN-P - April 2021

Chapter 2 Configure the Adapter

Auto detection of the data rate and duplex works only if the device (usually
a switch) on the other end of the cable is also set to detect the rate/duplex.
If one device is using fixed data rate/duplex, the other device must use the
same fixed settings.

3. Reset the interface by cycling power or by using the HIM as described in

Resetting the Adapter on page 28.

Setting Communication Hierarchy

A hierarchy determines the type of device with which the interface exchanges
data. In a controller hierarchy, the interface exchanges data with the
ControlLogix® controller or another communication bridge.

When a multicast I/O connection is used or when the interface does not have a
valid gateway address, the controller must be on the same IP subnet as the
interface to establish an I/O connection.

Setting a Controller Hierarchy

To set the Controller hierarchy, follow the instructions in this section to enable
datalinks to read and write data.

When using the ControlLogix controller, there is no need to configure
datalink parameters. They are assigned when configuring the drive Add­on Profile, see Configure Input and Output Data on page 36

Enable Datalinks to Write Data

The controller output image (controller outputs-to-drive) always contains the
logic command and reference fields. It can also have 0...16 additional 32-bit
parameters (datalinks). They are configured using 0:321 - [DL From Net 01] …
336 - [DL From Net 16]. The output connection size in the controller determines
the number of datalinks that are actively used. See the respective controller
example sections in Chapter 3

page 31 for more information on setting the connection size.

Configuring the Drive in a Logix System on

.

IMPORTANT

When using a ControlLogix controller, configure the datalink parameters now
as described in this section.

0:321 - [DL From Net 01] …336 - [DL From Net 16] control which parameters
receive the values from the network. These parameters apply to the drive,
option module, or any other connected peripheral. You can use a HIM, or
another drive configuration tool, such as Connected Components Workbench
software, to select the drive or peripheral by port number and the parameter by
name. As an alternate method, set the parameter value manually by number by
using this formula:

From Net Parameter Value = (10000 * Port Number) + (Destination Parameter Number)

Rockwell Automation Publication 750COM-UM009B-EN-P - April 2021 25

Always use the datalink parameters in consecutive numerical order. Start
with the first parameter. For example, use 0:321… 323 to configure three
datalinks to write data. Otherwise, the network I/O connection size is larger
than necessary, which needlessly increases controller response time and
memory usage.

Chapter 2 Configure the Adapter

For example, if you want to use 0:321 - [DL From Net 01] to write to Parameter
3 of an optional encoder card plugged into drive Port 5. By using the formula,

the value for 0:321- [DL From Net 01] would be (10000 * 5) + (3) = 50003.

Follow these steps to enable datalinks to write data.

1. Set the values of only the required number of contiguous controller-to­drive datalinks that write data to the drive and are included in the
network I/O connection.

2. Reset the drive by cycling power to the drive or by using the Reset Device
function of the HIM located in the DIAGNOSTIC folder for the drive. See

Resetting the Adapter

on page 28.

3. Because the logic command and reference are always used in the
interface, configure the parameters in the drive to accept the logic
command and reference from the interface.

When using the controller for speed reference via the interface, set two
fields in drive 10:1800 - [VRef A Sel].

a. Set the Port field for the drive.
b. Set the Parameter field to point to the parameter containing the

reference value received from the parameter containing the reference
value that is received from the embedded EtherNet/IP adapter 0:211 -
[Emb Enet Ref].

Also, verify that the mask parameters in the drive, (for example,
0:41 - [Logic Mask]) are configured to receive the desired logic
command from the interface. See the drive documentation for details.

The interface is ready to receive input data and transfer control data
from the controller.

Next, configure the controller to recognize and transmit I/O to the interface.
See Chapter 3

Configuring the Drive in a Logix System on page 31.

Enable Datalinks to Read Data

The controller input image (drive-to-controller inputs) always contains the
logic status and feedback fields. It can also have 0...16 additional 32-bit
parameters (datalinks). They are configured using 0:340 - [DL To Net 01] … 355 -
[DL To Net 16]. The input connection size in the controller determines the
number of datalinks that are actively used. See the respective controller
example sections in Chapter 3

page 31 for more information on setting the connection size.

IMPORTANT

Always use the datalink parameters in consecutive numerical order. Start
with the first parameter. For example, use 0:340…344 to configure five
datalinks to read data. Otherwise, the network I/O connection size is larger
than necessary, which needlessly increases controller response time and
memory usage.

Configuring the Drive in a Logix System on

When using a ControlLogix controller, configure the datalink parameters now
as described in this section.

0:340 - [DL To Net 01] … 355 - [DL To Net 16] configure which parameters in the
drive, interface, or any other connected peripheral send the values to the

network. Select the drive or peripheral by port number and the parameter by
name. Use the HIM, or another drive configuration tool such as Connected
Components Workbench software. As an alternate method, use this formula to
set the parameter value manually by number:

To Net Parameter Value = (10000 * Port Number) + (Origination Parameter Number)

For example, suppose that you want to use 0:340 - [DL To Net 01] to read
Parameter 2 of an optional I/O card plugged into drive Port 6. By using the

formula, the value for 0:340 - [DL To Net 01] would be (10000 * 6) + (2) = 60002.

Follow these steps to enable datalinks to read data.

1. Set the values of only the required number of contiguous drive-to­controller datalinks that read data from the drive and are included in the
network I/O connection.

2. Reset the interface by cycling power or by using the HIM described in

Resetting the Adapter

on page 28.

The interface is configured to send output data to the controller. Configure the
controller to recognize and transmit I/O to the interface. See Chapter 3

Configuring the Drive in a Logix System on page 31

Setting a Fault Action By default, when the drive is controlled by the network or receives information

from the network; communication is disrupted. The drive responds by
faulting, if it is using I/O from the network. Possible causes include that the
network cable is disconnected, the controller is idle (in Program mode or
faulted), or an MSG instruction that is used for drive control is disrupted. You
can configure another response to these faults:

• Disrupted I/O communication by using 0:360 - [Comm Flt Action]

• An idle controller by using 0:361 - [Idle Flt Action]

• Disrupted Explicit Messaging for drive control via PCCC or the CIP­based network Assembly Object by using 0:363 - [Msg Flt Action]

ATTE NT IO N: Risk of injury or equipment damage exists. By default, these
parameters fault the drive:

• 0:360 - [Comm Flt Action]

• 0:361 - [Idle Action]

• 0:363 - [Msg Flt Action]

You can configure these parameters so that the drive continues to run. However,
verify that the settings of these parameters do not create a risk of injury or
equipment damage. When commissioning the drive, verify that your system
responds correctly to various situations.

Changing the Fault Action

Set the values of 0:360 - [Comm Flt Action], 361 - [Idle Flt Action], and 363 ­[Msg Flt Action] to an action that meets your application requirements.

Table 3 - Fault Action Parameters

Value Action Description

0 Fault The drive is faulted and stopped (default).
1 Stop The drive is stopped, but not faulted.

Chapter 2 Configure the Adapter

Table 3 - Fault Action Parameters (Continued)

Value Action Description

2 Zero Data The drive is sent ‘0’ values for data. This value does not command a stop.
3 Hold Last The drive continues in its present state.

The drive is sent the data that you set in the fault configuration parameters:

• 0:364 - [Flt Cfg Logic] - A 32-bit value that is sent to the drive for logic

command

4Send Flt Cfg

• 0:365 - [Flt Cfg Ref] - A 32-bit REAL (Floating Point) value that is sent to

the drive for reference

• 0:366 - [Flt Cfg DL 01] … 381 - [Flt Cfg DL 16]) - A 32-bit Integer value that

is sent to the drive for a datalink. If the destination of the datalink is a
REAL (Floating Point) parameter, you must convert the desired value
to the binary representation of the REAL value.

Changes to these parameters take effect immediately. A reset is not required.

If communication is disrupted and then re-established, the drive automatically
receives commands over the network again.

Resetting the Adapter Changes to rotary switch settings and some interface parameters require that

you reset the adapter before the new settings take effect. You can reset the
interface by cycling power or by using the Reset Device function of the HIM
located in the DIAGNOSTIC folder for the drive.

Restore Interface Parameters to Default Configurations

ATT EN TI ON : Risk of injury or equipment damage exists. If the adapter is transmitting

control I/O to the drive, the drive can be faulted when you reset the adapter. Determine
how your drive responds before resetting the adapter.

Interface parameters can be restored in two ways:

• ALL—restores ALL parameters on the port to their default configuration
values.

• MOST—restores MOST parameters on the port —except the following,
which are used for network setup Port 0:

• 0:300 - [Net Addr Sel]

• 0:302…305 - [IP Addr Cfg 1…4]

• 0:306…309 - [Subnet Cfg 1…4]

• 0:310…313 - [Gateway Cfg 1…4]

• 0:314 - [Net Rate Cfg 1]

• 0:316 - [Net Rate Cfg 2]

IMPORTANT

Because the built-in EtherNet/IP adapter is part of Port 0, restoring the
port defaults also resets other drive configuration settings that are
made in Port 0.

Using a 20-HIM-A6 or 20-HIM-C6S HIM

Follow these steps to restore interface parameters to their default
configuration values.

1. From the Status screen, scroll to Port 0, which is the drive
port contains the built-in EtherNet/IP interface.

2. Use the key to scroll to Port 0, which is the drive port contains
the built-in EtherNet/IP interface.

Viewing the Interface Status Using Parameters

IMPORTANT

When performing a Set Defaults, the drive can detect a conflict and then
not allow this function to occur. If a conflict happens, first resolve the
conflict and then repeat this Set Defaults procedure. Common reasons for
a conflict include a drive that is running or a controller in Run mode.

9. Reset the interface by cycling power or by using the HIM as described in

Resetting the Adapter

on page 28.

Using enhanced HIM

Reset parameters to their default configuration by navigating to the
Parameters tab (enhanced HIM) and click the Reset to Defaults button.

The following parameters provide information about the status of the
interface. You can view these parameters at any time.
