Ok then guys,
I have a IM151-8 controlling a small stand alone filling/packaging line. When it was delivered it was set with the default 192.168.0.x IP addresses for the equipment. I now want to get the system onto the rest of my site network so i can show on SCADA, log data, etc....
I think i will have to change the IP address of the drives, remote IO modules, the HMI and the PLC. A bit of a change but i was wondering if it was possible to leave the IP addresses of the equipment the same, plug in the new network cable to the IM151-8 and allow the built in switch to handle the traffic or configure a port on the unit to be a different IP?
Any thoughts / ideas on this?
