Compactlogix IP

[MTD]

Why are Internet Protocol settings unavailable (grayed out) in Compactlogix L24 controller properties? None of the IP settings have been configured yet the controller communicates properly.

Gracias

If the Controller is set to get a dynamic IP(Bootp or DHCP) the other settings will be greyed out.
Set it to use a static IP and you may change these.

These values are not available when you are offline. CompactLogix processors network address is not saved or configured in the offline file like with Logix500 based processors. To change the IP address you need to connect to the processor using the USB (or serial on older models) and change it via RSLinx, or use the BootP protocol.

Thank you both. My question has been answered.
