IP.MODE
Description
This parameter is used to determine how the drive acquires an IP address for service port communication.
| IP Mode | Mode of Acquiring IP Address |
|---|---|
| 1 | Fixed IP Address: A static IP address is defined by the value set using IP.ADDRESS. |
| 2 (default) |
DHCP/Auto IP: Acquires a dynamic IP address using DHCP or Auto IP. If a DHCP server is not available, the drive uses Auto IP to acquire an available IP address. |
Recovering communications with a drive on an unreachable IP address
AKD2G drives can be recovered using the display's TCP/IP option. Instructions on how to configure TCP/IP on the drive using the display can be found in AKD2G TCP/IP Configuration.
