4.1.1 Introduction to EtherNet/IP
The JVL MAC00-EIx -module or MIS/MILxxxxxxEIxxxx, makes communication using
EtherNet/IP possible with the JVL motor. The Ethernet technology gives the advantages
of fast data access using standard off the shelf hardware which again has the advantage of
large accessibility and low prices.
The JVL implementation is done in a way that minimizes the complexity of getting a sys-
tem up and running but still utilizes the benefits of industrial ethernet.
The JVL EtherNet/IP implementation supports both explicit messaging and I/O messages
with up to 8 free configurable input and output words.
With a basic knowledge of the JVL motor operation through the register structure and a
basic knowledge of the EtherNet/IP technology, a motor can be setup and controlled in
a very short time without first doing extensive studies in complex motion control stand-
ards e.t.c.
EtherNet/IP is basically divided in 2 groups of data, explicit and I/O messages in other
words messages requiring fast data response time and data not so time critical typically
used for configuration purposes. In the EtherNet/IP terminology these messages are also
called Explicit messages (not time critical, none cyclic exchanged) and I/O messages (time
critical, cyclic exchanged).
In the motion control world, time critical data would be actual position, actual status and
actual speed and actual torque where data not time critical would be such as motor tem-
perature and setup parameters.
