AccuMeter Controller Chapter 5: Programming a New PLCs IP address 35
How to Use the BOOTP-DHCP Server to Set the IP Address of the
Compact Logix PLC
You need to program the IP address of the Coexpert-Master PLC to 192.168.0.141
1. You will need to use a laptop and a cross-over cable to connect from your laptop directly to the
Ethernet connector on the Compact Logix CPU.
Note: Administrative Rights are needed on the computer to do these steps. Also some laptops have
built in Wireless NIC or some computers have more than One NIC card. These NIC cards will need
to be disabled, so that when using the BOOTP DHCP server, you do not start taking requests from
other network devices that your computer is connected to and that include wireless devices.
2. Go to Control Panel of your computer.
3. Double Click Network Connections. That will open the Network Connections on the computer.
Here you can disable any NIC (by right clicking on the device and push disable) and Right Click on
the Card you are going to configure.
