AM2434: AM2434

Part Number: AM2434
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: LP-AM243,

Tool/software:

  • Query # 1 :How can we communicate with TCP/ IP protocol?? If we can,, how can we communicate ?? Is there anything to be changed in the code base to allow communication
  • Query # 2 : How to assign IP address of a card by connecting them through RJ45 cable ?? because in industries we have to assign the card with specific address. 

We are trying to evaluate LP-AM243 for EtherNet/IP adapter using industrial communication SDK as mentioned in the link below–( ind_comms_sdk_am243x_09_00_00_03)

We are changing IP address in appRst.h file and it is   given static as configuration method  and please help me out in assigning IP and do you have any DHCP servers so as to assign IP Address Dynamically??

 

  • Hi Yashaswini,

    I have shared the details of this query to our stack expert. We'll get back with an update soon.

    Thank you for your patience.

  • Hi Yashaswini,

    For changing the default IP-Setting you can change the following struct inside appRst.c

     In the example above, the configuration method is changed to DHCP.

    If you have ODVA CIP Protocol Conformance Test Suit then you could also use it to run DHCP server from there. Of course, you can use any other software to run DHCP server, it's just an example.

  • I need to assign AM2434 card with  specific IP Address, subnetmask  and default IP gateway when LAN wire is connected to card ...can you please specify what commands need to be given from PC in order to assign specified ip ??

    How to communicate through TCP/IP Protocol ?? 

  • Hi Yashaswini,

    As I pointed out earlier, you could switch from Static IP configuration to DHCP by changing the code inside appRst.c and re-compiling your project.

    After that, you need to connect your Board to the PC via Ethernet connection and then run your DHCP Server tool to automatically assign IP-Address to the AM243x-Board.
    You can use whatever DHCP Server tool you see fit for your purpose.
