Set PLC rotary switches as required Ethernet Modules Unit # and Node # B. Start project and connect via USB com. C. Register I/O table, set IP address, and Routing Table (if applicable, – if using more than one SIOU card) D. Download, discon., change comm. to Ethernet 4A. Set PLC Rotary Switches Figure 4A.1; Set PLC Rotary Switches (CJ2H) Figure 4A.2; Set PLC Rotary Switches (CJ2M) Setting Rotary Switches Unit Number: 0-F, set to position 1 (Each communications module on the Rack ass’y must have a unique number up to 16 on a system. More than 1 will require a routing table be set via CX-Integrator.) Node Number: Set “16X1” Sw to 2, and 16X0 Sw to 7. (These are “hex-based” settings which must match the last octet of software set IP address, this is done later via I/O table configuration.) In this case 27 hex = 39 decimal, our IP is 10.0.12.39 in this example.
