BoX2 base, BoX2 pro (motion) and BoX2 extreme, change IP address

​Follow these steps to edit the network settings on a BoX2 base, BoX2 pro (motion) and BoX2 extreme.

LAN A is used for EtherCAT only, valid for BoX2 pro motion

LAN B is for programming and communication with HMI. 

Extract the attached zip-file. Put "BoX2ConfigSet.json" on a USB-stick and insert it into a BoX2. This will immediately set LAN B to 192.168.1.1. When the change is done the LED on the BoX2 will change temporarily to a red flash.

Do not change the file name.

A log file will be created on the USB-stick and can be used to verify that the setting was changed. Example:

"New result file input
Time: 2000-5-28 21:32:37
LAN B set IP: 192.168.1.1
Adapter rebind LANB successfull"

Edit the file to set a different IP. Locate the setting to be changed, for example IP-address on LAN B:

Original:

    {
      "Number": "6",
      "Enabled": true,
      "Command": "LAN B IP",
      "Entry": [
        "192.168.1.1"
      ],
      "Comment": ""
    },

Edited:

    {
      "Number": "6",
      "Enabled": true,
      "Command": "LAN B IP",
      "Entry": [
        "192.168.1.2"
      ],
      "Comment": ""
    },

Important:

"Enabled" must be set to 'true' in order for the change to take effect.
Several settings can be changed at the same time but they must all be set to 'true'.
