Checking communication state of Connecting to Built-in Ethernet port CPU

(1)When using the Command Prompt of Windows®. Execute a Ping command at the Command Prompt of Windows®.

(a)When normal communication C:\>Ping 192.168.0.1

Reply from 192.168.0.1: bytes=32 time <10ms TTL=32

(b)When abnormal communication C:\>Ping 192.168.0.1 Request timed out.

(2)When abnormal communication

At abnormal communication, check the followings and execute the Ping command again.

• Cable connecting condition

• Confirmation of switch and network parameter setting

• Operation state of PLC CPU (faulty or not)

• The IP address of Built-in Ethernet port CPU specified in the ping command
