Settings dialog

The Settings dialog is required for settings such as the IP address and other basic settings. It is divided into two basic settings, which are indicated by the index numbers.
The index 0xF800 contains all the settings that are used when the system is started.
The index 0xF900 contains the settings that are valid in the running system. The actual valid settings are important if basic settings are not made via the Settings dialog but have been changed via the PLC.

The IP address is a virtual IP address and initially has nothing to do with the IP setting of the operating system (OS). It is recommended to use a different network class than the one selected in the OS. If the IP address of the EtherNet/IP™ scanner is still the same as that of the OS, set the value 255.255.255.255 under IP address (0xF800:21). (See also Firewall recommendation)
