3.2 Network Parameter Setting

The network parameters can be set with the operation mode setting switches and station address setting switches.

For methods to set these switches, refer to "Table 3-1 Station address setting" and "Table 3-2 Operation mode setting table."

For the TN8 module, the following network parameters must be set.

• IP address type

• Station address

Two IP address types are provided; nv series 1 and nv series 2. Also, it can be set with the engineering tool.

3.2.1 Network ID and subnet mask

nv series 1 setting (Standard setting)

Use the operation mode setting switches to set the IP address type to "nv series 1."

This is the standard setting of the unified controller system.

Network ID: 172.16.64.XX

(XX indicates the value of the station address setting switches)

Subnet mask : 255.255.192.0

nv series 2 setting

Use the operation mode setting switches to set the IP address type to "nv series 2."

This setting is used for expansion of the TC-net 100, and not used normally.

Network ID: 172.31.64.XX

(XX indicates the value of the station address setting switches)

Subnet mask : 255.255.192.0

Arbitrary setting

Use the operation mode setting switches to set the IP address type to [Tool setting], and set IPF to [ON].

and the value has precedence over the value of the station address setting switches.

However, the following cannot be used in the IP address.

• Addresses starting with 127(7Fh)

• Addresses with all bits of the network address are "0" or "1"

• Addresses with all bits of the host address are "0" or "1"

The value of the subnet mask consists of a series of "1" from the most significant bit.

3.2.2 Station address

Use the station address setting switches to set the station address.

Any station address can be set; however, it must be unique within the system. The available setting range for station addresses is from 01(h) to FE(h)(1 to 254).

3.2 Network Parameter Setting

When the IP address type is [Tool setting], it has precedence over the value of the station address setting switches. In this case as well, it is recommended matching the lowermost value of the specified IP address (5 in the case of 172.16.64.5) and the value of the station address setting switches. For [Tool setting], set the station address in the dotted decimal notation using the engineering tool.

3.2.3 Overview of multicast address

The TN8 module supports 15 multicast addresses.

Support addresses are as follows:

Any of the 15 addresses can be selected and registered by using one TN8 module.

Registration to the TN8 module is performed with the engineering tool.

For the registration method, refer to "3.3 Setting with the engineering tool."

Figure 3-1 An example of multicast group configuration

In multicast, controllers can be grouped as shown in the example of Figure 3-1.

Controllers 1, 2, 4, and 5 belong to Group A, and Controllers 3, 5, and 6 belong to Group B.

In this example, multicast addresses are set as follows:

• Multicast addresses in Group A ……225.224.0.1

• Multicast addresses in Group B ……225.224.0.2

By doing this, the controllers can be grouped by registering them as follows:

• Controllers 1, 2, 4……225.224.0.1

• Controllers 3, 6…………225.224.0.2

• Controllers 5……………225.224.0.1 and 225.224.0.2

The setting above allows messages to be passed to the controllers that belong to the group simultaneously.

3.6 Setting the RAS Information Block in Scan Transmission

The RAS information generated by the TN8 module can be expanded in scan transmission. To register the RAS information generated by the TN8 module in scan blocks for transmission, use the following registration conditions. For the registration method, refer to "3.3.2 Setting the scan sending blocks."

RAS information block setting conditions

• BlockNo： 2048 － Station address （the value of the station address setting switch）（Example： Block 2043 if the station address is 5）

• CntSlotNo： Slot number (0 to 7) where the TN8 module is installed

• Speed： Medium (M)

If the conditions above are met, the TN8 module generates RAS information for the scan block for transmission.

The transmission of the RAS information block starts when a scan sending start request is received from the host controller. After that, the transmission of the RAS information block continues even if an error occurs in the host controller.

The scan talker block must be set in the host controller making the scan sending start request.

7.1.2 Referring to information by socket

As described in "7.1.1 Configuration of information by single Ethernet socket," information by socket used by each of the user applications is expanded on the station bus of the TN8 module. There are some considerations when accessing the information.

When socket communication is performed using an instruction word by the controller, the socket number is obtained from the instruction word using the USEND_N command. The socket number is managed by the controller. The socket number is once converted to a socket ID managed by the TN8 module. Based on the converted socket ID, the information by socket is referred to that is expanded on the station bus of the TN8 module.

The scan data healthy map is managed in the configuration as shown in Figure 7-5.

The scan data healthy map shows the state information of the corresponding scan data blocks.

Bit “1” The scan data of the corresponding scan block is healthy.

Bit “0” Unhealthy

In the scan data healthy map information, the information of the block is ON when a healthy state of the block is detected, and the information of the block is OFF when an unhealthy state of the block is detected.

Unhealthy detection condition: An unhealthy state is detected if no scan

data of the block is received within the diagnosis time determined based on the scan sending cycle set for the block.

The diagnosis time is set to 500ms if the value four times the scan sending cycle is less than 500ms. If it is greater than 500ms, the diagnosis time is set to the value four times the scan sending cycle (rounded up to the nearest 10ms) (three cycles are diagnosed).

If a station redundant configuration is used with the TN8 module, do not register any RAS information block because RAS information generated by the TN8 module cannot be used.

Therefore, send the information necessary for the application by using a scan block that is not a RAS information block.

For details on setting the RAS information block, refer to "3.4 Setting the RAS information block in scan transmission."
