Adding a route to theWindows routing table requires administrator privileges.Therefore, administrator credentials may be requestedwhen initializing the connection.Carry out the following steps to enable indirect communi-cation.Disable IPv6 on the network interfaces used for communi-cation on the PC:1. Open the Network and Sharing Center.2. Select Change adapter settings.3. Right-click on the network interface used forfieldbus communication and select Properties.4. If the TCP/IPv6 is available for the networkinterface, disable it.Illustration 5.3 Local Area Connection PropertiesOperation with ISD Toolbox VLT® Integrated Servo Drive ISD® 510 System110 Danfoss A/S © 01/2017 All rights reserved.
