IEEE 802.3 Ethernet Communication
ADDvantage-32 PLUS
8-10
10.1.206.1-10.1.206.127 would be one subnet and 10.1.206.129-10.1.206.254 another, not
accessible by the other.
GATEWAY ADDRESS
X***: GWY ADDR HI: Highest octet of the GATEWAY IP ADDRESS – range 0-255,
default = 10
X***: GWY ADDR HM: High Middle octet of GATEWAY IP ADDRESS – range 0-255,
default = 1
X***: GWY ADDR LM: Low Middle octet of GATEWAY IP ADDRESS – range 0-255,
default = 205
X***: GWY ADDR LO: Lowest octet of the GATEWAY IP ADDRESS – range 0-255,
default = 3
The GATEWAY IP ADDRESS is defaulted to a value of 10.1.205.3. The Gateway IP Address
must be set to a valid address on your network and MUST be in the same subnet as the ADD-
32 PLUS . Failure to set the GATEWAY IP ADDRESS that is consistent with the DRIVE IP
ADDRESS and DRIVE SUBNET MASK will result in a total loss of communications. Also,
failure to set the GATEWAY IP ADDRESS to a valid address may result in failures in
communications to devices not on the drive’s Subnet or possibly even a total failure of the
ESBX Ethernet board. Your MIS Department may want to specify the GATEWAY IP
ADDRESS.
“Gateway” is a generic term for an internetworking system (a system that joins two networks
together). Gateways can be implemented completely in software, completely in hardware, or as
a combination of the two.
MACHINE NUMBER
X***: MACHINE NO: Range 0-7, default 1.
The MACHINE NO parameter is used for customer installations that have multiple
ADDvantage-32 PLUS based machines (process control systems) connected to and accessible
to the same ETHERNET NETWORK. The MACHINE NO parameter is only relevant to
ADDAPT 2000 (ADDvantage-32 PLUS Application Programming Tools) where a Channel #
from 201 to 208 must be entered in the ADDAPT configuration (ADDAPT.cfg) for each drive
section. The MACHINE NO is also used in the setup of ADDAPT Real Time Screens. The
ADDAPT Channel # is equal to the X***: MACHINE NO + 200. Typically, all ADDvantage-
32 PLUS drives on a specific machine/drive system would be set to the same Machine Number.
ADDAPT 2000 uses both the drive’s Machine Number and DRIVE ID for identifying and
establishing Ethernet communication to drives for each machine/drive system within your
facility.
