Page 20: I/O Data View
MGate 5105-MB-EIP Quick Configuration Guide NOTE When the MGate gateway acts as an EtherNet/IP adapter, the OT instance is 100 and TO instance is 110. Your EtherNet/IP scanner (e.g. PLC, SCADA) needs to use these two instances to communicate with the MGate. For example, you should provide an Output (i.e., OT) instance of 100 and an Input (i.e., TO) instance of 110 for a Rockwell PLC, as shown below. -
