Mark, I am running EtherNet/IP and was hoping it (or another driver) could be used to process CIP data. After reading David Dudley response, it does not sound like there is an existing EPICS driver that will help
me. Randy From: Mark Rivers [mailto:[email protected]] Hi Randy, I didn’t see a reply to this, so I’ll ask a couple of questions. I don’t really know anything about CIP, but from a quick Google study it appears to be the underlying technology
used in EtherNet/IP, DeviceNet,
CompoNet and ControlNet.
Are you actually using one of those higher-level protocols? What system is generating your CIP messages? Mark From:

On Behalf Of Lane, Randy I am new to IOC and PLC programming, so forgive me if this is a newbie question. I search Tech Talk but did not see an answer. I am working on a project where we will be receiving CIP (Common Industrial Protocol) data. The CIP data stream is not consider critical and is for reference only. Due to reasons beyond my control, the CIP data will need to be processed
by a program (IOC) and not a PLC. I have written an IOC program (C/C++) that receives/sends data to our Allen Bradley PLC using the Ethernet/IP driver. Can the Ethernet/IP driver be configured to receive CIP data, thereby looking and acting like a PLC? Or
is there another IOC layer/driver that could provide this ability? Or is there another solution that I am overlooking? Many thanks. |
