Introduction
This manual is an outline of the AD-855２EIP and the instructions for setting up and installing the equipment. Refer to the A&D website for more information on the compatible weighing devices and communication protocols.（https://www.aandd.jp/）
Features
The AD-8552EIP converts RS-232C communications of the weighing device into EtherNet/IP communications (EtherNet/IP converter).
- By using EtherNet / IP, the balance can be controlled directly from the network. In principle, the AD-8552EIP can connect up to 253 units to one PLC. (In actually, the maximum number of connected devices varies depending on the PLC performance and communication frequency.)
- The weighing value can be reset to zero (re-zero) by operating from the PLC.
- The hook on the back of this device allows one-touch DIN rail mounting.
- When connected to a AD-4212C, etc., response speed can be changed, Sensitivity adjustment can be done with an external weights, and power can be supplied to the measuring instrument. Please check A＆D website for compatible measuring instruments.
Cautions
Before use, confirm the following items for safe operation.
- This device is a precision instrument. Please handle with care.
- Avoid vibration, shock, extremely high temperature and humidity, direct sunlight, dust, splashing water, air containing salt or corrosive gases, and places where flammable gases are present.
- The operating temperature is 0°C to +50°C (32°F to 122°F).
- Please ground the module.
- The power supply is DC24V. If it contains a momentary power failure or noise components, that may cause a malfunction. Use a stable power supply. Please avoid sharing with the power line.
- Do not share the earth ground line and power line with other electrical power equipment.
- Do not turn on the converter until installation is complete. The convertor is not equipped with a switch to turn it off.
- To prevent foreign matter from entering this device, do not remove the prevent overheating, be sure to remove the protective cover before turning on the power after installation and wiring.

Connections example
- When connecting and removing the cables, push the buttons with a driver etc.
- We recommend use of rod type crimp terminals for the tips of cables.
Shields of the RS-232C connector are connected internally to the FG of the power connector.
C AUTION
- Do not use the product at a voltage exceeding the rated voltage (DC24V +10%-15%).
- Ground the FG terminal of the switching power supply used for the power supply.

Ethernet/IP 
RS-232C
- When using some weighing devices, such as AD-4212C, the power from this device can be used to operate the weghing device, and wiring of the power supply is not required. Please check the A&D website for the compatible models.
Switch
Change the switch settings according to your operating environment. Be sure to turn off the AD-8552EIP after changing the setting. When the power is turned on, the switch setting change is reflected.
Communication setting for EtherNet/IP
| SW-1 | SW-2 | IP address |
| 0 | 0 | It will be the address set in the web interface. |
| 0 | 1 | [ 192.168.0.1 ] |
| n1 | n2 | [ 192.168.0. (n1×16 + n2×1) ] |
| F | E | [ 192.168.0.254 ] |
| F | F | [ 192.168.1.10 ] |
Set the IP address so that it does not duplicate that of other devices.
