2. Make one copy of the SLC 5/05 processor template for every
SLC 5/05 processor in your system.
3. Edit each copy of the template as follows:
A. Replace plc5name with the name of the SLC 5/05 processor.
Use only letters and numbers; do not use underscores.
B. Replace aa.bb.cc.dd with the IP address to be assigned to
the processor.
C. Replace xxyy with the last four digits of the hardware
address. Use only valid hexadecimal digits (0-9, A-F); do
not use the hyphens that separate the numbers. (You will
find the hardware address on a label affixed to the printed
circuit board of the SLC 5/05 processor. Note: See
page 5–13 for an illustration showing the location of the
hardware address.)
4. Save, close, and make a backup copy of this file.
Example
In this example there are three SLC 5/05 processors and an HP 9000
programming terminal. The names and hardware addresses are
device specific:
Device Name IP Address Hardware Address
