Ethernet/IP Description
The following information provides an overview of the Anybus™ Ethernet module which:
● acts as a Group 2 and 3 server on an Ethernet/IP network. Ethernet I/P is based on the
Common Industrial Protocol (CIP)
● is configured as a communication adapter (Profile 12).
● uses Assembly #150 for O→T data (data sent to the NXGpro Control)
● uses Assembly #100 for T→O data (data sent from the NXGpro Control)
● supports input and output data sizes of 2 to 128 bytes
● has an RJ45 for connection to a network
To enable dual functionality, this protocol requires an additional Anybus™ module.
