6 Industrial Ethernet Overview
6.1 EtherNet/IP
In this context, references to EtherNet/IP
EtherNet/IP IO data transfer or implicit messaging, this connection is meant to approximate a real-time data transfer to and
from the PLC and the target device.
Allen-Bradley's CompactLogix
software used by these PLCs is RSLogix5000
The ZMX is controlled via EtherNet/IP using assembly objects.
The Originator of the EtherNet/IP connection is the PLC. The Target of the EtherNet/IP connection is the ZMX. The direction
of communication can be described as T > O or O > T (sometimes also shown as T2O or O2T).
6.1.1 Configuring the Sensor to use an Industrial Protocol
Use the following instructions to enable the Modbus TCP protocol or the EtherNet/IP protocol on the ZMX sensor.
1. Go to the Communications pane in the Banner 3D Configuration software.
2. From the Industrial Protocol menu, select the desired protocol.
A sensor reboot may be required.
3. Click Live Protocol Map to open a view of the data.
