**Parameter „Save module parameter“ in the web server
The coice of the options “Yes” and “Standard” cannot be dis-
played in the web server, caused by the data structure of this
parameter. The display will be reset to “No” anytime.
Option “Yes”: The current image of all module parameters is
saved in the coupler and will be sent to the modules again
during the coupler’s next restart. Subsequent changes of the
module parameters are considered and saved only if the op-
tion “Yes” will be chosen again.
Option “Standard”: The default parameters will be loaded to
the modules immediately. Subsequent changes of the mod-
ule parameters are possible, but they will get loss during the
coupler’s next restart.
Parameter „Restore module parameter“
This parameter is not editable. It will be automatically set to
“Yes” as soon as the coupler will have sent saved parameter
data to the modules.
Assignment of IP addresses
The automatic assignment via DHCP is the default setting of
the UR20-FBC-EIP. Further options are BootP or Static. For
automatic assigning a respective server must be available in
the network. The mode of IP assignment can be changed ei-
ther via the web server (see chapter10) or via the eldbus.
Changing the mode of IP mapping via the eldbus
Providing that the coupler has already received an address,
the mode of IP assignment ca be changed via the following
data object: TCP/IP object 0xF5 (245), instance0x01 (1),
attribute0x03 (3). The options are Static [0], BootP [1] or
DHCP [2].
When switching to mode Static, the coupler will keep the
address that has been assigned automatically before; this ad-
dress will be saved permanently.
When switching to an automatic mode the coupler will start
a request on the respective server immediately.
Allocating a new IP address
A new IP address can be allocated via the following data
object: TCP/IP object 0xF5 (245), instance0x01 (1), attri-
bute0x05 (5). The new address will be saved permanently,
if the mode Static is set. Using the automatic assignment the
address will be used temporarily only.
Address Conict Detection
After an address has been allocated to the coupler, it will be
checked whether this address is already used within the net-
work (ACD, Address Conict Detection). In case an address
conict is detected and the address is rejected, the coupler
requests another address from the DHCP server, as long as
DHCP mode is active. When using mode BootP or Static, the
coupler must be disconnected from the Ehternet and con-
nected again.
