Operational Procedures

The operational procedures will be illustrated by an explanation of how to read and write to APB running file through the remote control of APB PLC after it is connected to the network module to monitor APB variables.

When EXNET network module is linked to the supply power and the computer correctly, APB Software can be used to set new IP address. The factory default IP address of EXNET network module is 10.118.1.196. If you want to modify IP address, firstly, set EXNET network module and the computer it connects to in the same LAN and set the gateway address as 10.118.1.1.
