Hello, I have multiple questions regarding the Multiple service packet service. would very much appreciate anyone who helps. 1. How commonly is this service implemented in adapters and devices? 2. Does the PowerMonitor1000 support this? it doesn't state it explicitly in the manual. 3. Can you give an example of a device that DOES support this and it states in its manual? 4. If i get a "service not supported" status when making that request, does this necessarily mean that this action is not supported on the device? Thanks in advance! -
Hello Everybody I have started an EIP communication between a Mitsubishi IQR plc and a Zebra ZT610. For this I use a RJ71EIP91 card for MITSUBISHI. And on the Zebra side I had the "Network Connect" driver installed. In the RJ71EIP91 card I put the ESD file. (attention I was obliged to modify this one and to put the communication in "point to point" (before it was multicast) I have a closed network (Zebra, PLC, PC) It works. I can print labels with tags that evolve in the PLC. The problem is that when I turn off the printer I have a lot of trouble reconnecting it to the PLC. When I run a slave scan with the "RJ71EIP91 TOOL" software, it no longer sees the printer, although I can ping it from this software and I can see it clearly. To regain communication I have to reset the zebra, or initialise the network parameters, or initialise with the factory parameters. It's really strange. I can't figure out what is making me regain communication. If I switch off the PLC or unplug the RJ45s and leave the Zebra switched on, I don't lose communication. Do you have any ideas to help me understand my problem? Thank you all for your help. Renaud

Hi, has anyone tried to get a Mitsubishi iQ-R to communicate with the Keyence IV3 series cameras over Ethernet/IP? There are videos about how to use the IV3 with Allen-Bradley (Rockwell) PLCs but Rockwell's implementation of EIP is completely different from Mitsubishi's implementation. I am using an existing system with the RJ71EIP91, I have the IV3 EDS file added to the Ethernet/IP Configuration Toll for RJ71EIP91 software, I know I need to add the IV3, set the IP address and connection number. But how do I access the data, and send the trigger for the IV3? The instruction videos for Allen-Bradley uses the I/O tree to create tags and pre-made AOI's to create the logic to do all of the communication work in the PLC code, which is a process that I am familiar with. However, none of that is relevant to the Mitsubishi PLCs. I figure I have to use somethning like Uxx\Gxxxxxxx in my logic to access the data for the IV3 from the RJ71EIP91 module but not sure how to get that to and from the actual IV3. Does anyone have any ideas? (sorry my initial post was blank, accidentally prematurely posted).

Hi everyone, I have a question for you all, Is possible to configure CJ2M-CPU11 with tags trough network configurator to connect Control Logix PLC using EthernetIP? I did a configuration with CJ2M-CPU31 and Control Logix PLC with no problem, but now I need to communicate CJ2M-CPU11 with Control Logix PLC using EthernetIP. Some of you did this configuration between this two PLC before? Regards!

Hi all, I am new to the PLC world and my company gave me a CP2E-N PLC and a Nachi robot to play with. We installed Ethernet/IP fieldbus card in the Nachi robot controller but I could not get the 2 to communicate. The CP2E did not show up in network configurator but the fieldbus card did. Before I spend more time to get the E/IP working, I would like to confirm that CP2E-N support Ethernet/IP, does anyone knows if CP2E-N support E/IP? Any help would be much appreciated.

I am trying to change the subnet of this CP1L plc. Currently it is at 192.168.250.*** and I would like to change it to 192.168.54.***. I already tried starting fresh by writing to the controller with ip 0.0.0.0 and then putting my desired ip address after. When I try to write to the controller with a subnet other than .250 for example 192.168.54.13, the controller saves the node address(.13) but keeps the same .250 subnet which results in me being able to ping 192.168.250.13 successfully but get no response from pinging 192.168.54.13. Yes I did change my local network card when pinging different subnets and also did a network reset in CX-P after every ip change. Let me know if there is anything I am missing!!

I am setting up some new barcode readers for a CJ2H PLC using EtherNet IP. These are nodes 134 and 135. For whatever reason, one of the older barcode scanners that have been in use for many years (node 131) doesn't show up whenever I do an upload. Physically all of the barcode readers are installed and communicating with the PLC. Is this an Omron software bug? Is there a fix so it doesn't confuse me (or other people working on this machine)? Thanks.

Hi,I am connecting several computers and NS12 HMIs with a CJ2 PLC using EtherNet/IP protocol. And I would like to know the FINS Address (Net.Node.Unit) of the HMI and the computers. I suppose I need to fix their addresses using an IP Address Table. Right?? Anyway, I only know to do that with UDP, but I don't know how to do that under Ethernet/IP.Thank you.

Hello PLC gurus, I have a really noob question to ask. I am new to ethernetIp programming. I have a 1756-L61 that is supposed to communicate with another device over EIP. The Ethernet object assembly is set like this Input assembly instance: 100. Size 1 Output assembly instance: 254, configuration instance:1, Size 0 Read data: 2 word Write data: 2 word Does anyone know how I can set up the producer/ consumer tags to read and write to the data block over eip?? I thank all of you in advance

Omron NX102 / NX1P2 cannot trigger MOXA ioLogik E1212 Outputs through Ethernet/IP connection, But I can read the Inputs Status All the time. Just CANNOT trigger the Outputs signal through Omron PLC. Moxa claim that they can use AB PLC trigger E1212 outputs and no problem at all, but now OMRON PLC cannot. Steps I am doing... Define the custom Data Type Structure. Create a variables with custom data type. Mapping with MOXA eds file setting. Inputs - 67 bytes, Outputs - 1 bytes. I had Install the MOXA EDS file I do contact MOXA Support channel, they claim that Omron PLC not response to port 2222 . Can anybody help ? because same Omron PLC using for test also tested with other EIP device with no problem at all. I have no idea which party are problem now... T.T

Hi, I have an OS32C-SN-DM Omron laser scanner on test and I am trying to set/read scanner parameters via Matlab, over TCP. The communication works as I am able to read the scanner range data etc. But I have a problem with changing zone set via Ethernet/IP (TCP) communication. I am using Omron OS32C Configuration tool 2.2.8 and the scanner OS32-SN-DM should support changing the zone set via EIP. In the Configuration tool I set Warning zone selection by EIP to Enable as shown in attached picture. The feature of changing the warning zone over EIP is explained in single paragraph: 4.21 Active Warning Zone Set Selection When the scanners "Monitoring zone" is configured for multiple detection zone sets and the "Warning zone selection by EIP" is enabled, the EtherNet/IP interface can be used to change the active warning zone set instead of using the zone inputs. When this feature is enabled an EtherNet/IP network device must select one of the 70 possible preprogrammed warning zone sets before starting normal operation. For more information on zone configuration and selection, see sections "Zone Set Selection and Configuration" and "Zone Set Input Selection" in the OS32C user manual. The switching time of the active warning zone set using the EtherNet/IP interface is one scan cycle or approximately 40 milliseconds. Output assembly objects 113, 114, 115 each can be used to define the active warning zone set as well as the vendor specific object 115 listed in Table 4. I am using vendor specific object 115 (0x73,1,7) to change the Active Warning Zone Set, but the scanner is always in error code 70 (Incorrect number of active zone set select inputs (guarded machine stop). I tried with automatic mode, Start interlock mode etc, but the scanner always expects the digital inpuits to change the zone set. Does anybody have any idea what could be a problem as the Omron local support does not know the answer. Thank you very much for any suggestion! Jure

Writing Firmware for an Ethernet/IP Device
EDI posted a topic in Allen Bradley / Rockwell Automation
Hi everyone, we are digital display company that manufactures industrial displays. One of our more popular products are displays that use Ethernet/IP to communicate from a PLC. We are trying develop a gateway device that bridges the PLC (typically AB) to our serial input displays. We need help writing the firmware. If you are interested or have any suggestions, please let me know. Thanks.

We recently obtained a new Vendor ID (VID) Number from ODVA, 1477 for the purposes of developing an EtherNet/IP scanner device. When we try to use that number with the Allen-Bradley PLC & Studio 5000 Logix Designer, our data type REAL's are showing up in Studio 5000 as SINT's. We have seen this mangling of data types before when using the Omron VID, 47 with the same Allen-Bradley PLC/EIP Scanner. The data types are being misinterpreted, or mangled from REAL to SINT, e.g. the *.eds file defines 32 REALs for Input and 32 REALs for Output, but within Studio 5000 we see 128 SINTs each for Input and Output. It is as though the Allen-Bradley/Studio 5000 database does not have our Vendor ID. When I change the *.eds file, Vendor ID Number from #1477 to #1 then we see the *.eds file being properly read and interpreted, e.g. 32 REALs for Input and Output show up as 32 REALs each. Does anyone know what file we need to modify in Studio 5000 ??? We want to add our Vendor ID #1477 to that file. Hardware: EIP Scanner: Allen-Bradley Compact Logix L18ERM EIP Adapter: Delta Tau Power PMAC Motion Controller (EIP OpeNer Stack) Thanks in advance! See screenshots below. within Studio 5000, see screenshots

I have an application I am currently working on where I have a single AB ControlLogix PLC that needs to read data from 12+ Omron CJ2M PLCs. The Omron PLCs don't need to read any data from the AB. I have tried several things including the generic .eds file from Omron and the instructions in the document I found on this site: Omron CJ2 to Rockwell ControlLogix Ethernet/IP Datalink. The generic .eds file gave me a D6 error on the Omron side and after talking to support it does not seem like the correct path. When I tried following the instructions for the datalink I ran into several issues. The first issue was that after configuring my network in the Omron software upon trying to load it I got a unit mismatch message for the 1756-EN2T, the .eds file I have is for a 1765-EN2T but the card shows as a 1756-EN2T/D, so I am concerned that could cause an issue...that being said I can't find any .eds file specifically for the /D revision. The next thing I noticed was that there doesn't seem to be be a way to link the produced data from the Omron to the AB, the Omron configuration software with the AB .eds files loaded only gave me the option to send data to the Omron which we do not need to do. I created a generic Ethernet module in my RSLogix program for the Omron PLC and then created a consumed tag and linked that to the module but I do not see where I set up the link on the Omron side for that, so how does it know what addresses to read?? Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!! Thank you! -
Hi. My goal is to communicate from a Wago 750-881 Controller to CJ2M With ETN21 on Modbus UDP. I can only find Modbus TCP function Blocks but would prefer UDP. Does it excist ? Cheers. WagoGrim
