7.1 Ensuring Safe and Successful Control
Data written to the EtherNet/IP Module remains in its
register until the data is overwritten or the module is
reinitialized. The EtherNet/IP Module does not transfer
successive duplicate commands to the soft starter.
•
If the soft starter is started via fieldbus communi-
cation but stopped via the LCP or a remote input,
an identical start command cannot be used to
restart the soft starter.
•
If the soft starter is controlled via the LCP or the
remote inputs (and via fieldbus communications),
a control command should be immediately
followed by a status query to confirm that the
command has been actioned.

7.2 Cyclic Operation
This section lists requirements related to cyclic services for
the EtherNet/IP Module. The EtherNet/IP Module uses both
implicit (I/O) and explicit messaging, with a cyclic trigger
(minimum cyclic interval = 1 ms).
