• You need a route for the subnet. The configuration of your route depends on
your system.
Switch the POWERLINK system on and put it in a safe state.
u
If the network does not have a DHCP server, you need a correct IP address and
subnet mask.
Use a web browser to exchange data between the PC and the AES module
u
web server. In the address bar, enter the IP address of the AES module. The
first three bytes of the IP address are defined by the routed subnet and the
fourth byte by the node ID of the AES module. In the figure above, this is
192.168.101.(NodeID).
You are now connected to the web server.
3.3 EtherNet/IP
Requirement:
In your valve system, you use an AES bus coupler for EtherNet/IP (R412018222).
Risk due to misuse!
The web server in the AES module is a tool for the implementation phase and
to update the module software.
1. Make sure that the machine is in a safe state while you are working with the
web server.
2. Never use the web server for permanent monitoring.
To establish a connection with the AES module web server, you can either con-
nect the AES module directly to a PC or to the fieldbus.
3.3.1 Connecting the AES module to the PC
To connect the AES module to a PC, you need an Ethernet cable with the follow-
ing connections:
• RJ45 plug for connection to the computer
• M12 plug (male), D-coded, for connection to the bus coupler
In addition, you need a power supply line with an M12, A-coded plug (female).
Refer to the bus coupler system description for more information on the M12
plug assignment.
1. Set your computer's IP address to a free address on your subnet.

NOTICE
2. Connect the AES module to your computer's EtherNet interface and switch
the AES module on.
The "NET" LED flashes green.
3. Assign the AES module an IP address from the same subnet.
4. Use a web browser to exchange data between the PC and the AES module
web server. In the address bar, enter the IP address of the AES module. This IP
address must have the same subnet as your computer's IP address.
To enter the IP address, you can either use a DHCP server or the
"Browse & Config Tool", or manually enter the IP address using the ro-
tary switch below the window if your AES module is equipped with
one.
You can get the "Browse & Config Tool" from AVENTICS Sales.
You are now connected to the web server.
3.3.2 Connecting the AES module to the EtherNet network
Error due to unqualified personnel!
Connection and configuration errors result in disruptions in EtherNet commu-
nication.
Connection and configuration may therefore only be carried out by quali-
u
fied personnel (see g 2.4. Personnel qualifications ).
