Functions (continued) EtherNet/IP standard communication protocol

1

EtherNet/IP is an industrial communications protocol based on the Common Industrial Protocol (CIP) which is owned and managed by ODVA, an international, independent standards organization (see ODVA website) . Standard, unmodified Ethernet Schneider Electric added EtherNet/IP as a core network in 2007. EtherNet/IP is very similar to Modbus TCP in many aspects. In particular, it shares the same principles of standardization and interoperability. EtherNet/IP operates on the same equipment and infrastructure as Modbus TCP, and both protocols can operate simultaneously on the network at any time. Advanced services and high performance EtherNet/IP is built on an object-based model. Data in each EtherNet/IP device is grouped in objects, and each device may have different types of objects, depending on the purpose of the device. EtherNet/IP objects The Ethernet modules implement the standard set of objects prescribed by ODVA. The most common objects are listed below: Communication Identity Object (01hex) Message Router Object (02hex)
