1.4.2 Connecting to the ProTalk Configuration/Debug Port
Note: The module has a serial port as well as an Ethernet port. The first time you connect to the
module to configure it, you can connect to the module’s serial port using the supplied null-modem
cable, because the module’s default Ethernet settings may not match your network.
HSBY Note: For HSBY units the Ethernet connection must be applied. This connection is used
as a backup to ping status messages over the PROFIBUS network. It is also used for DPV1
remote (passive) Master buffer update during switchover.
PC to Ethernet Port Connection
Important: The PTQ-PDPMV1 module is equipped to use an Ethernet connection using the
following defaults:
My_ip: 192.168.0.100
Netmask: 255.255.255.0
Gateway: 192.168.0.1
HSBY Note: For HSBY units the remote (passive) Master module Ethernet connection is
always Primary IP plus 1. For example, Primary IP = 192.168.0.100, Standby module IP =
192.168.0.101. This setting is not configurable: the module's firmware automatically sets the IP
address of the remote (passive) Master.
If you cannot use these defaults for your connection, you must change them
using ProSoft Configuration Builder and then download the new values to the
PTQ-PDPMV1 module, either through a serial cable, or by using a Compact
Flash (CF) writer. If you need to change the Ethernet addresses, use ProSoft
Configuration Builder to change the values in the WATTCP file.
