2.3.2 Addressing using the Properties Dialog in HW Config or NetPro

Follow the steps below to assign the IP address the first time:

1. Open the SIMATIC Manager.
2. Define the configuration of your S7 station with the appropriate components in
HW Config in an existing or newly created project.
3. When you create the CP, network it with an Industrial Ethernet subnet.
When you create the CP in HW Config, the necessary dialog is displayed in
which you can network the device and assign the IP address.
4. Select the ”Addressing” tab in the properties dialog of the CP you want to
address.
The tab displayed is identical to the dialogs illustrated in Section 2.3.1.
5. Start a network search for available modules by selecting the “Browse...”
button.
6. Select the CP with the matching MAC address from the components listed.
7. Assign the IP parameters taken from the networking to the CP by clicking the
relevant button.
Result:
The CP is now accessible on Industrial Ethernet using the IP address.
