“Use remanent data”

The IP settings and the station name of the file are used. Initially, the IP address is ‎0.0.0.0‎ according to the standard and the station name is blank. When a controller sets these values with the "store remanent" option, then they are stored here.

“Use project parameters”

When starting the device, the values defined in the project for IP configuration and station name are always used initially.

“Station name”

The name of the device in the network.

Note: The station name and the IP settings can deviate from the (default) settings configured in the project. They can be set by the controller in runtime mode and in some cases stored persistently (this means when this is specified for the controller in the ‎Set IP‎ or ‎Set station name‎ commands). After a restart, the device is configured with these values as long as the “Use remanent data” option is set.

“IP address”

Initial IP settings

Caution: This data can be modified by the PROFINET IO Controller. The remanent data is stored on the file system of the controller. After the controller is restarted, this stored data goes into effect. The settings here are then ignored.

“Subnet mask”

“Default gateway”
