Frequently Asked Questions

• Q: What is the main purpose of this adapter?
• A: It allows a Modicon Momentum I/O rack to communicate over a standard Ethernet network using the TCP/IP protocol, modernizing legacy systems.
• Q: Can it connect to modern 100MB switches?
• A: Yes. The port is 100BASE-TX compatible, so it will auto-negotiate and connect to both 10Mbit and 100Mbit Ethernet switches.
• Q: How do I set its IP address?
• A: You can assign a fixed IP address manually, or use a BOOTP server on your network to assign one automatically during startup.
• Q: Is it suitable for a daisy-chained network?
• A> Yes, it supports multi-drop (daisy-chain) topology, which can simplify cabling in linear installations like conveyors.
• Q: What happens if network communication is lost?
• A> The module features a configurable fail-state. You can set the connected I/O to hold their last state or go to a predefined safe state.
