! • PLC I/O and Controller Internal Memory data is treated as a vari-

Important able. The variables that the GP unit can handle are as follows.
When handling all PLC variables with the GP, use the following
variables in the ladder program.
Please note that memory variables differ from GP unit’s device
name.

7.3.3 Environment Setup

GP Unit Setup
The following describes GP settings for using Ethernet communicaiton.

Set the station No. to “0” for [1] SET UP OPERATION SUR-
! ROUNDINGS.
Important

Select “SETUP
ETHERNET INFOR-
MATION” and set up
the Addresses and Port
Numbers.

• SRC IP ADDRESS
Enter GP’s SRC IP Address. Input a dot between every 8 bits to divide the IP
Address (32 bits all together) into four gorups, and enter decimal numbers in
each groups.
• SRC PORT NO.
Set the SRC Port No. between 1024 and 65535.
• DEST IP ADDRESS
Set the PROSEC’s DST IP Address.
• DEST PORT NO.
Set the DEST Port No. between 1024 and 65535.
Note: The communication method is UDP format.

Chapter 7 - Ethernet Connection 7.3 TOSHIBA

When using the built-in Ethernet port on a GP2000 or GLC2000 se-

! ries unit, be sure not to set any duplicate "SRC PORT No." values.
Important
Check the 2-way driver's "SRC PORT No." setting via the following
menu:
GP OFFLINE mode's Main menu [INITIALIZE] -> [SETUP OPERA-
TION SURROUNDINGS] -> [EXTENDED SETTINGS] -> [SETUP
ETHERNET INFORMATION].
The default value is 8000. The 2-way driver uses this port and the
following 9 ports.

Regarding the IP Address and the Port No., please confirm these points with
STOP your Network supervisor. You must not duplicate the number you have al-
ready used for an IP Address setting.

SEND WAIT TIME

You can display the waiting time while GP’s command is actually sent. This
function is useful when there is a lot of traffic in your system. If not using, set
it to “0”.
TIMEOUT
You can set time for waiting for a replay from the destination. If any replay is
not made by the destination within time you set to, the communication will be
timeout. “0” setting is the default value as 15 second-setting for timeout.
IP ROUTER ADDRESS
Set Router’s IP Address. (There is only one setting for Router.) If not using,
set all values to “0”.
SUBNET MASK
Set the Subnet Mask . If not using, set all values to “0”.
UDP RETRY COUNT (0 to 255)

• If you intialize the memory from the OFFLINE mode, some val-
! ues might be automatically set to the factory settings. Please
Important confirm all values after intialization.
• Refer to the PLC’s users manual for PLC settings.
• Set the Ethernet module to the RUN mode after you have set the
IP Address and the Port No.
