2-1 Overview of Startup Procedure
The following procedure is the same for the CS Series and CJ Series.
Mount the Unit to the PLC.
Set the unit number.
Set the node number.
Connect to the network
using twisted-pair cable.
Determine the local IP address
and address conversion method.
Create the I/O tables.
Create the routing tables.
Perform Unit setup.
(Create IP router tables.)
Routing tables must be set to enable the following.
• Using the FINS communications service
Check communications.
(PING command and/or
echo test).
Turn ON power to the CPU Unit.
(See note 3.)
(See note 1.)
(See note 4.)
(See note 5.)
Setting system settings freely
(setting possible with
CX-Programmer or Web function).
(See note 2.)
Setting only the IP address (not
making other Unit settings) for
simple application or operating
with only the Programming
Console (setting possible with CX-
Programmer or Programming
Console).
Set the local IP address in the
CPU Bus Unit setup area.
Set local IP address in DM Area
words allocated for CPU Unit Units.
Connecting to the Ethernet Unit
without making any settings.
Use the default IP address.
Note 1: Used mainly when a Programming Console is used to set only the local IP address (set in allocated DM words). When using this method, always
leave the local IP address in the CPU Bus Unit Setup Area set to the default value of 0.0.0.0 If the CPU Bus Unit Setup Area contains any other
value, any setting made in the allocated DM words will be overwritten with it.
2: The local IP address and other parameters can be set with the CX-Programmer.
3: A PLC Programming Device is required: CX-Programmer, CX-Integrator, Programming Console, etc.
4: The CX-Integrator is required.
5: The CX-Programmer is required.
• Using the CMND instruction with more than one
Communications Unit mounted to the PLC.
