BACnet/IP Controller 750-830 • 87
Fieldbus Node Start-up
WAGO-I/O-SYSTEM 750
BACnet/IP Controller
3.1.7.2.5 Testing the Function of the Fieldbus Node
1. In order to check communication with the controller and for correct IP ad-
dress assignment, start the DOS prompt via Start / Programs / Command
prompt.
2. Type the command ping using the IP address you have assigned, with the
following syntax:
ping [space] XXXX . XXXX . XXXX . XXXX
Fig. 3-2: Example for a fieldbus node function test G083070e
3. Press Return
The controller sends a reply to your client PC that is displayed in the DOS
prompt window.
Should the error message "Request timeout" appear, check your input against
the IP address you assigned.
4. If the test is successful, you can close the DOS command prompt window.
The node is now ready to communicate.
3.1.7.2.5.1 Reasons for Failed IP Address Assignment
• The controller MAC address does not correspond to the entry given in the
"bootstrap.txt" file.
• The client PC on which the BootP server is running is not located in the
same subnet as the controller; i.e., the IP addresses do not match
Example: Client IP: 168.192.0.10 and controller IP: 10.1.254.5
• Client PC and/or controller is/are not linked to the ETHERNET.
• Poor signal quality (use switches or hubs)
