Chapter Introduction and Quick Start 1 Introduction The VersaMax IC200SET001 Serial to Ethernet Adapter (VMSE) brings network connectivity to factory floors. It is designed to connect industrial devices with serial interfaces to an Ethernet network using the TCP protocol family (TCP for transparent stream- and UDP for datagram applications). Various devices can be interfaced, for example: • PLCs • CNC Controllers • Terminals • Time/attendance and data collection devices • Industrial robots • Da

1 VMSE Firmware Options The IC200SET001 VMSE has multiple firmware choices. All of the choices are shipped on the CD that is shipped with the VMSE unit. Upgrades and new firmware choices will be placed on the GE Fanuc WEB site, as they become available. The VMSE ships with the default SRTP/SNP firmware loaded in flash memory. SRTP/SNP Firmware The SRTP/SNP firmware is used to connect GE Fanuc PLCs or other devices, which support the SNP protocol, to Ethernet. Devices that support GE Fanuc Ethern

1 Introduction and Quick Start Quick Start The easiest way to configure the IC200SET001 VMSE is over Ethernet. The following steps need to be done, in the order listed, to configure the VMSE. Preliminary Step Connect the VSME to the Ethernet network. Default IP Address The VMSE is shipped with a default IP address of 0.0.0.0, which automatically enables the DHCP within the VMSE. NOTE: Using the ARP (Address Resolution Protocol) command (see below) you can always override the IP address given to

1 Figure 1-2. Results of the Ping Command B. Type arp -a (make sure you leave a space between arp and –a) at the MS-DOS prompt, then press the Enter key. You should see at least one entry in the ARP table, as shown in the next figure: ARP Table Figure 1-3. Results of the arp –a Command If the response is “No arp entries found,” repeat steps A. and B. to ping other devices until the arp -a command lists one or more devices. Note that the ARP table entries will be removed automatically after s

After the Enter button is pressed in the previous step, the Telnet window opens with the VMSE Serial number, shown in the next figure. Confirm the Telnet connection by pressing the Enter key within 3 seconds. It you don’t respond by pressing the Enter key within 3 seconds, the telnet connection will time out and you will have to close the telnet window and repeat the

Use this screen to configure the VMSE. An example is provided in the following “Configuration” section. Note The VMSE comes equipped with SNP/SRTP firmware by default. If you are using a protocol other than SNP/SRTP, you must load the correct firmware for your protocol from the supplied CD (see Chapter 5 for firmwar

1 Introduction and Quick Start Configuration This section is just an overview. See Chapter 4 for configuration details. Before proceeding with the configuration procedure, ensure that you have the correct firmware loaded in the VMSE. The VMSE comes equipped with SNP/SRTP by default. If you are using a different protocol, you must load the correct firmware for that protocol. See Chapter 5 for instructions. You have six Command choices at the Configuration screen Command Prompt (see next figure

1 Configuration Example The following figure shows the results of pressing the 2 key to select the “CH1 Serial and Protocol Settings” parameter group. Notice that the first parameter in the group (“Protocol Mode”) is displayed. The current value is shown in parentheses (001 in this example) before the prompt. Simply pressing the Enter key would retain the current parameter value; typing 2 and pressing the Enter key would set the Protocol Mode parameter to Mode #2. Figure 1-10. Configuring the

Chapter VMSE Interfaces 2 Serial Interface The VMSE has RJ45 and screw block serial ports. The RJ45 port only supports RS232, whereas the screw block port supports RS232 and RS485/422. By setting the switch located on the face of the VMSE and configuring the VMSE setup, RS232 or RS485/422 can be selected. NOTE: The VMSE is a single serial port device, meaning that only one port can be used at a time. In the configuration menu, Channel One refers to either one of the ports being used. Figure 2-1.

2 Network Interface The VMSE supports 10 Mbit Ethernet through its RJ45 (10BaseT) connector. Hardware Address (MAC Address) The first three bytes are fixed, and read 00-20-4A. The fourth, fifth, and sixth bytes are unique for each VMSE and are used to generate the serial number. The address is in Hex notation. Power Requirements The VMSE is not shipped with a power supply. The required input voltage can vary between 9VDC and 30VDC with a maximum of 3 Watts. The VMSE can be powered from the 24 Vo
