I am having trouble figuring out how to set up communication over ethernet between a P2K and C-More 8 " EA9. I figured it out on a click pretty easily, but this is way over my head. I'm sure there is no shortage of people who are smarter than me that can tell what I am doing wrong.

Is 192.168.11.200 the IP address of the P2K?

Yes and 192.168.11.57 is the IP address for the C-More. Local Network through a Stride SE-SW5U switch. No Internet accessability.

The help of the C-More panel say this "Verify the PAC communication port settings are the same as the C-more panel. "

You do not need to create a generic Ethernet client in the P2K to communicate between the P2K and C-more. Just make sure you choose "AutomationDirect Productivity Ethernet " for the PLC protocol in your C-more.

I tried it without the generic client first and i had the same result. This may be related, I can see the plc through suite via ethernet but I cant connect to it through ethernet. I can only connect through USB. When I try to connect through ethernet I get an IP setup conflict (see attachment), I just havn't been able to find the conflict.

It is within range (192.168.11.98). I also tried connecting direct (without the switch). Im beginning to wonder if there is a problem with the ethernet end of the PLC.

Your P2k address is set to 162 .168.11.200, not 192 .168.11.200.

It is a common feeling, don't let that stop you.
