I’ll look into this and see if there any that aren’t too pricey. My admin (I’m doing this project as a research assistant for my university) denied the purchase of an Ethernet/IP native scanner so I’m not sure they’ll allow me to purchase an RTA converter. Another forum actually suggested the PointIO serial ASCII module, which is not super pricey, so I might try to go that route. Thanks for your reply!

Hi All, I've just found some documentation for the Weidmueller device that says it does not support Ethernet/IP, so now I'm browsing the Rockwall library to learn how to use TCP sockets in Studio 5000. Please let me know if you have any tips and tricks for this. Thanks!

Hi Everyone, I'm trying to use a Weidmueller IE-CS-2TX-1RS232/485 as a communication device with a SICK CLV503-0000 barcode scanner, taking the RS232 signal from the scanner, then converting it to Ethernet/IP and transmitting it to my controller, which is a CompactLogix L18ERM-BB1B PLC. I was wondering if anyone could find the information to set up the communications in Studio 5000. I'm not having any trouble with the converter receiving the signal from the scanner, but I don't know how to set up the module in Studio 5000 to get the data from the converter, and I can't find that information anywhere on the Weidmueller website. Thanks in advance for your help.
