There is a problem with a Lenze 8400 self-contained motor/drive unit, model 8400, with Profinet comm board E84DGFCR. The Siemens S7-300 314C-2 PN/DP will not talk to it. Maintenance team has replaced the motor/drive and moved the EEPROM from the old unit to the new unit. The Lenze drive should have an IP address of 1.0.0.10 per system drawings, but apparently the IP address did not transfer over with the EEPROM.
I went online with the drive in Lenze Engineer via diagnostic adapter and set the parameter "IP address" in C13000 along with subnet mask in C13001. The IP address and subnet mask are definitely stored in those two parameters, but it does not show in the "Active IP Address" parameters C13010/1 - C13010/4, Nor does the Subnet mask show up in "Active subnet mask" (C13011), along with the rest of the parameters which the manual calls "Active" parameters. (C13012: "Active gateway," C13864: "Active Station Name").
The manual does little to explain what these "active" parameters are for, what they do, and how they become "active." All I know is that the machines which work, have values in these "active" parameter fields, and this one which isn't working, doesn't. I can't enter values into these fields, and no matter how many times I download/save/restart, these fields remain blank. I suspect that is my problem. What do I need to do to make the IP address I entered, go "active?" And what does "Active" mean?
Thank you!
