The guide provides information about device features, connection diagrams and LED diagnostics.
It also shows how to set up device IP address using different tools. TBEN-LG devices can be configured
with EDS files, or using a generic device profile. Device web server provides advanced configurati on and
diagnostics information. TURCK IP address tool is used for quick discovery of TURCK devices residing
on different VLANS.
The guide, together with the data sheets, provides sufficient information for using TBEN in DLR
(device level ring) or QC (quick connect) applications. DLR application does not require any specific device setup, as devices are ready for DLR networks. QC mat be enabled or disabled by a single configuration bit, part of configuration data tag. Address conflict detection (ADC) is implemented and enabled in
the device by default. TBEN supports up to 3 TCP connections and 6 CIP connections, and it may be
configured with 3 PLCs using Exclusive Owner, Input only or Listen Only connections.
The TBEN-LG series are multiprotocol communication adapters and they support Modbus
TCP/IP, EtherNet/IP and PROFINET communication protocols. All protocols are enabled “outof-box” by default. After power up, a multiprotocol station queries all necessary ports to detect
what protocol is used. The “Active Fieldbus Protocol” is defined as the first protocol to do one of
the following actions:
− Modbus TCP Write to output register range.
− EtherNet/IP Establish Class 1 Exclusive Owner connection to device.
− PROFINET Connect request.
This “Configuration Guide” shows TBEN-LG-8DIP-8DOP in an EtherNet/IP environment to describe features and configuration procedures of the TBEN-LG series.

Note 1:
The pin-out of P1 and P2 are “crossed over”. P1 has a “NIC-Type” connection and P2 has a “Switch-
Type” connection. The TBEN devices are configured with Auto-MDIX enabled when not used for fast
startup / quick connect. In that case the switch detects the cabling type itself.
With the crossed connection of P2 it is possible to connect multiple devices in a row without Auto-MDIX
with 1:1 EtherNet cables. This ensures that the switch could establish a link quickly for fast start-up devices.

TBEN has three rotary switches which are used to set either the last octet of the device IP address or device mode of operation. Valid address range and mode of operation are:
The address switches are pre-set out of box to 600 (PGM-DHCP mode). IP address can be assigned immediately using DHCP server.
General procedure for IP address setup is:
− Set rotary switches to desired mode (300, 400, 500, 600)
− Cycle power to the station
− Run IP address utility to assign IP address
− Set address switches to static rotary position or PGM mode
− Cycle power to the station
The TBEN station IP address can be configured and/or changed in following ways:
− Using static rotary mode
− BootP Server utility
− DHCP Server utility
− TBEN Web page
− IP Address tool
Address Switches in Static Rotary
When address switches are in static mode, the last octet may be dialed in 1-254 range.
Addresses 0 and 255 are reserved and cannot be used.
Following example shows the last octet set to of address xx.xxx.xxx.173
Setting rotary switches to any other position not listed on the device or data sheet sets device
into DHCP mode and bus LED flashes green / red.
When rotary switches are set to 600, it enables PGM–DHCP mode of operation. It is the default,
out-of-box setup mode of the device. To assign IP address the first time:
− Power up the device
− Run the DHCP utility and assign IP address
− Disable the DHCP request from the module by clicking the Di sa ble BOOTP/DHCP but-
ton in the utility
−Leave the rotary switches in 600 (PGM-DHCP) position or set switches to a number that
matches the last octet of the assigned IP address [1,…,254]
− Power cycle the device
Note:
When the device is set to 600 (PGM-DHCP) mode, its IP address can be further
changed using either the IP Address Tool or WEB page.
When the device rotary switches are set to 500 or 600, the device IP address can be changed
using following tools:
− Device WEB server
− TURCK IP address tool
While the rotary switches are set to 500, power up the device. It comes up with the last IP address that was saved in the EEPROM memory. It can be either the factory default IP address
192.168.1.254 or the last assigned IP address whatever it i s.
PGM (500) and Web Server
To login into the Web server as administrator use following procedure:
− Set rotary switches to 500 and power-up device
− If IP address has never been assigned before, enter 192.168.1.254 into Web browser
− If IP address is known, enter the device current IP address into Web browser
− If IP address is unknown, read the “Factory Reset Mode (900)” to reset device to factory
default setup. IP address
− When device web server starts, enter “password” into “Password” field and click “Login”
When rotary switches are set to 0 and device power cycled, the device recovers only IP address
to factory default value:
− IP address: 192.168.1.254
− Mask: 255.255.255.0
− Gateway: 192.168.1.1
The device responds to PING command, but it does not operate when switches are set to 0. At
this point it is necessary either, to assign new IP using address tools as described earlier, or
simply dial rotary switches between xx=1,…, 253; to set address as 192.168.1.x.
Factory Reset Mode (900)
The device resets itself to factory default settings, as follows:
− Set the rotary switches to 900 position
− Power up the device (the BUS LED solid red) and wait 10 sec
Following section provides information how to configure TBEN device with Rockwell Automation
Logix controllers. There are two configuration methods which depend on a controller revision:
− Configuration using EDS file ( Electronic Data Sheet):
It is supported only by Logix controllers firmware revision 20.00.00 and above.
− Configuration using Ethernet Generic device profile:
It is supported by all Logix controllers
TBEN Configuration Using EDS Files
The EDS file which supports configuration assembly may be imported into RSLogix5000 project.
The Logix Designer creates device profile based on EDS and saves device configuration in the
project. The controller pushes configuration data to the device whenever connection between
them is established.
The TBEN-LG configuration procedure includes following steps:
Configure user interface to the ControlLogix platform using RSLinx communication software.
Add new EtherNet/IP driver that is used to establish connection between programing PC and
the Logix controller:
TBEN utilizes integer IO data format. It can be selected from drop down menu as follows:
TBEN supports following CIP connections:
− Exclusive Owner
− Input Only
− Listen Only
The Exclusive Owner is preferred and default IO connection used by the device. It provides access to the input and output data, and configuration assembly.
The Input-Only and Listen-Only connections may be used to configure the device with multiple
PLCs. The TBEN device supports up to 3 TCP sessions and 8 CIP connections.
Once the TBEN is configured and added to the Controller Organizer, t he controller creates configuration, input and output data tags as shown hereafter:
.

Device “Connection Faulted” flag is also attached to the input data by the controller.

Configuration Guide
The device configuration data consist of parameters that are read / write enabled. Parameters are set while the controller is in the program (offline) mode. Configuration is saved in
the controller. The controller always pushes configuration data to the device during PLC download, or at device power-up, when connection between the controller and the device is in process of configuring (ForwardOpen).

Earlier versions of RSlogix5000 Programming Software and Logix controllers, revision 19 or
less do not support EDS files. In such case, TBEN may be configured using Ethernet Generic
Module profile. The TBEN device configuration includes following steps:
− Create / open existing RSLogix5000 project
− Add Ethernet Generic device (as seen in RSLogix5000 rev 16)
− Add Ethernet Generic device (as seen in RSLogix5000 rev 20 and up)
− Configure device by entering assembly instances and data size as follows:
Open the web server by entering the device IP address in a web browser.
If IP address is not assigned to the device (DHCP, BootP server etc.), it’s the web server can
be opened using the default IP address 192.168.1.254.
