Supplied under the part numbers A-IO-BASICKIT or XXXETHBASICKIT the Wago I/O controller 750-362 supplied by Fluke provides three options for IP address setting "out of the box":
Boot-P
DHCP
Fixed IP via DIP switches in the range 192.168.42.nnn
Special Note
Preconfigured settings are specific to the package supplied by Fluke Process Instruments.
If Wago hardware is purchased from the open market, additional work will be needed to apply settings that replicate ours. Wago software is needed to complete this. (Refer to the attached video)
The Wago from the free market has IP address of 192.168.1.0 by default.
The FPI supplied Wago comes with 192.168.42.xx
As shown below. the DIP switch configuration is for "Boot-P".
The software defines the IP address applied to the controller and is especially useful for saving time setting up or when needing to replace a controller in the field = plug and play.
Boot-P is only available in DatatempDP (ES,GS etc), ThermoView and CS400 software packages.
Boot-P is not available for any devices running embedded APIs such as TV30-SA and SV600
All DIP switches off (as shown) = programmed settings (Boot-P) as supplied by FPI
All DIP switches on (255) = DHCP (if using a router with a DHCP server IP, not Auto like 169.254 etc)
Setting IP Address using DIP Switches
The simplest method is just to set the DIP switches to result in 192.168.42.128:
Special Note - power cycle the controller after changing DIP switch positions for the settings to take effect
Once this is done, connect via Wago I/O check and right-click on the controller graphic to change the Boot-P setting to a fixed IP address
Further Example - from attached I/O manual - see pages 31 and 32:
Network prefix saved in the fieldbus coupler: 192.168.42
Host ID set via DIP switch value: 50 (binary coded: 00110010)
Resulting IP address: 192.168.42.50
1. To configure the IP address via the address selection switch by setting the host ID (last position of the IP address) to a value that does not equal 0/255, first convert the host ID to the binary representation. For example, host ID 50 results in a binary code of 00110010.
2. Set the bits in sequence using the 8 address switches. Start with address switch 1 to set bit 0 (LSB) and end with address switch 8 for bit 7 (MSB).
Special Note
DHCP can be useful (if not desired in an industrial setting) in case the IP address is not known (for any reason) and there is no access to via serial cable etc to the Wago settings. Connect to router or switch that has access to a DHCP server and use an IP scanning program or router DHCP table to discover the applied address
