Net F/T Installation and Operation Manual Document: 9620-05-net ft-11 Next, determine the IP address assigned to the Net F/T by following the instructions in Section 6.1—Finding Net F/Ts on the <strong>Network</strong>. NOTICE: IP addresses assigned by a DHCP server are not permanent and may change if the Net F/T is disconnected from the network for a period of time. Contact your IT department for more information. Step 13: Step 14: Open up the TCP/IP properties of your local area connection again. Restore the settings to where they were before you reconfigured them (use the values you recorded in Step 3). Open up a new web browser window, enter the IP address you gave (or the DHCP server has assigned to the Net F/T) the Net F/T system into the browser’s address bar, and press Enter. The Net F/T’s Welcome page should display again. You can now communicate with the Net F/T over your network without needing to configure the communications settings again. NOTICE: If the Net FT Configuration Utility found the Net F/T, but the internet browser is unable to open the found IP address, you may need to clear previous device entries from the computer’s ARP table by restarting the computer or, if you have administrative privileges, by going to the computer’s Start menu, selecting Run..., and entering “arp –d *”. This should only be necessary if another device previously occupied the same IP address that the Net F/T is now using. 3.7 Connecting to an Ethernet-based Fieldbus Net F/Ts with an optional fieldbus module connect to the fieldbus via the Net F/T’s standard Ethernet connection. Although the fieldbus uses the same Ethernet connection as the Net F/T uses for its standard communications, the fieldbus option has its own MAC address and its own IP address. The fieldbus’s MAC address is shown as MAC ID 2 on the connector side of the Net Box. To be used, the fieldbus module option must be enabled on the Net F/T’s Communications page. 3.8 Connecting to DeviceNet (using DeviceNet-Compatibility Mode) The Net F/T system has a DeviceNet compatibility mode which allows operation over a DeviceNet network. The DeviceNet-compatibility mode fully implements all DeviceNet commands. The DeviceNet MAC ID address and baud rate settings follow Section 3.10—DIP Switches and Termination Resistor. For protocol information, refer to Section 13—DeviceNet-Compatibility Mode Operation. The Net F/T Pwr/CAN connector matches standard DeviceNet connectors and connections. The Pwr/CAN connector mates to a standard female DeviceNet M12 connector. 3.9 Connecting the Net Box to a CAN Bus <strong>Network</strong> The Net F/T supports a basic CAN protocol. The CAN Bus base address and baud rate settings follow Section 3.10—DIP Switches and Termination Resistor. For protocol information refer to Section 15— CAN Bus Operation. 3.10 DIP Switches and Termination Resistor The configuration DIP switches and termination resistor are located inside of the Net Box where they are safely protected from outside debris and liquids. The cover of the Net Box must be removed to gain access to these. Before opening the Net Box, make sure that the box is unpowered and that you and the Net Box are electrically grounded. To remove the cover, fully loosen each of the four screws that fasten the cover to the Net Box chassis. The cover can then be removed by lifting it straight up and off of the chassis.

Net F/T Installation and Operation Manual Document: 9620-05-net ft-11 Figure 3.15—Net Box Cover Screws The internal electronics have a clear shield to help protect them from debris or errant tool movements. There are access holes in the shield for the DIP switches and termination resistor jumper. Figure 3.16—Net Box DIP Switches, Termination Resistor and LEDs Before replacing the Net Box cover, you must ensure that no debris or liquids are in the chassis. To replace the Net Box cover, place the cover back on the chassis (verify that the window is above the LEDs and DIP switches) and tighten the four screws until each is snug. 3.10.1 Termination Resistor By default, the Net Box ships with a CAN bus termination resistor installed. Remove the termination jumper if you want to disable the internal termination resistor. To remove the termination resistor, you will need to use a pair of tweezers or pliers to pull the jumper off. Safely store the jumper somewhere in case you need to re-enable the termination resistor. 3.10.2 Node Address By default, the Net Box ships with a CAN Bus base address of 432 and DeviceNet MAC ID of 54. These are defined by the DIP switch settings (see Figure 3.16—DIP Switch Settings for details).
