Ethernet/Ip Host Object (F8H) - Anybus CompactCom 40 EtherNet/IP Network Manual

10.2 EtherNet/IP Host Object (F8h)

Category
Basic, extended
Object Description
This object implements EtherNet/IP specific features in the host application. Note that this object must
not be confused with the Ethernet Host Object, see "Ethernet Host Object (F9h)" on page 171.
The implementation of this object is optional; the host application can support none, some, or all of the
attributes specified below. The module will attempt to retrieve the values of these attributes during start-
up; if an attribute is not implemented in the host application, simply respond with an error message (06h,
"Invalid CmdExt[0]"). In such case, the module will use its default value.
If the module attempts to retrieve a value of an attribute not listed below, respond with an error message
(06h, "Invalid CmdExt[0]").
Note that some of the commands used when accessing this object may require segmentation. For more
information, see "Message Segmentation" on page 189.
If the module is configured to use EIP QuickConnect functionality, the EDS file has to be changed. As
the EDS file is changed, the identity of the module has to be changed and the module will require cer-
tification, see "Conformance Test Guide" on page 12.
