Changing the IP address of the Ethernet interfaces (X101, X102)
![]() | DIP switches take priority The DIP switches are set ex factory such that DHCP is active for the Ethernet interfaces (X101, X102). As a result, the settings in the operating system or via the web interface are not adopted. |
In this work step you will learn how to change the IP address of the Ethernet interface (X101, X102) via the web interface (Beckhoff Device Manager).
Requirements:
- Set the DIP switches correctly so that the IP address is adopted completely from the operating system.
- Start the web interface (see: Starting the Beckhoff Device Manager).
Change the IP address as follows:
- 1. Click on Device and then on Connectivity.
- 2. Click on the wrench symbol to configure the network settings.
- 3. Change the network settings and assign a new IP address.
- Save the settings to confirm all changes.
