Information:
For all POWERLINK and Ethernet connections, only connections within a building are permitted, taking
into account maximum lengths.
POWERLINK V2 mode
By default, the POWERLINK interface is operated as a managing node (MN). In the managing node, the node
number is set to a fixed value of 240.
If the POWERLINK node is operated as a controlled node (CN), a node number from 1 to 239 can be set in the
POWERLINK configuration in Automation Studio.
Ethernet mode
In this mode, the interface is operated as an Ethernet interface. The INA2000 station number is set using the B&R
Automation Studio software.
Information:
If interface IF1 is operated in Ethernet mode, then this interface receives its own IP address and works
independently of Ethernet interface IF2.
