Ethernet Configuration

AN-X can be configured:

• to use a static (unchanging) IP address

• to obtain its IP address from a DHCP server

• to use the fixed link-local address 169.254.42.84

AN-X modules are shipped with the link-local address 169.254.42.84.

Unless you have control of the DHCP server, in most applications you will assign the

AN-X a static IP address. Otherwise the DHCP server may assign a different IP address

each time AN-X powers up, and any software that accesses the AN-X module would have

to be reconfigured.

If you are using multiple AN-X modules, connect and configure one at a time, since

initially they will all be set to the same link-local IP address.

The AN-X2-ABRIO-EIPSCN module connects a controller on remote I/O such as a

PLC-5 to scan I/O modules on Ethernet.

Before you can use the AN-X2-ABRIO-EIPSCN, you must configure its network

properties on Ethernet.

IMPORTANT!

If you are connecting AN-X to an existing Ethernet network, consult the

network administrator to obtain information about how you should

configure AN-X or to obtain a static IP address for AN-X.

Cabling and Termination

Follow Allen-Bradley cabling recommendations for remote I/O. Refer to Approved

Vendor List for DH, DH+, DH-485. and Remote I/O Cables, publication ICCG-2.2.

February 1996.

On the AN-X module, the connections should be line 1. shield, line 2.

AN-X2 Modes of Operation

There are two AN-X2 modes of operation:

• Maintenance mode. The AN-X2 runs the maintenance firmware at startup. It

performs diagnostics (memory tests, etc), copies any changes from the microSD card.

If there are no errors, it starts the AN-X2 in production mode.

• Production mode. This is the normal runtime mode of operation.

Prevent Electrostatic Discharge

The module is sensitive to electrostatic discharge.

WARNING!

Electrostatic discharge can damage integrated circuits or

semiconductors. Follow these guidelines when you handle the module:

• Touch a grounded object to discharge static potential

• Do not touch the connector pins

Power

AN-X requires a DC power input of anywhere from 12 to 24 VDC.

Left to right the pins on the power connector are chassis ground, negative voltage and

positive voltage.

The chassis ground should be connected.

Power consumption is 200 mA @ 12VDC or 100mA @ 24VDC.

The part number for the power connector is Phoenix MSTB 2.5/3-ST-5.08
