Code reader to PLC
• Data Exchange Method
To exchange data, a connection is opened between two EtherNet/IP devices.
One of the nodes requests the connection to open a connection with a remote node.
The node that requests the connection is called the Originator and the node that receives the re-
quest is called the Target.
• Data Exchange Memory Locations
The memory locations that are used to exchange data across a connection are specified as tags.
You can specify memory addresses or variables for tags.
A group of tags consists of an output tag set and an input tag set.
Additional Information
Message communications are used when communicating over EtherNet/IP with a PLC that
does not support Tag Data Link communications.3-1-10 Communicating with the Code Reader
