Open EtherNet/IP Class 3 connection between EIPScan tool and NICEB

Hello ,

Can anyone tell me how to establish the class 3 connection between EIPScan (EtherNet/IP host) and NetX IC Evalution board (NICEB)?

What will be the values(hex) for Service , Class , Instance , Attribute ?

I tried to read Modbus Class 0x44 with service code 4E(Read Holding register)..but it gives me error "Error: A parameter associated with the request was invalid"

Please help me

Thanks in advance.

Hello Sandeep P,

first of all sorry, that it took me so long to answer.

Service: 0x4E
Class: 0x44
Instance: this is the device address to address the slave on the Modbus network, so for example 0x02
Attribute: 0x00 (not used)

Additionally, some request data must be sent to provide information about the registers and number of registers to be read. Note: the data must be provided using the intel format (little endian).

Request data: e.g. 01 0A 04 00 (01 0A = register address, 04 00 = number of registers to read (here 4) )

Hope this helps.

Regards,
Kai

HI Kai,

Thanks for you mail.

I am using NetX evalution board(NICEB). NICEB's modbus master address is 0x02. our device (i.e.modbus slave) address is 0x01. NICEB is connected via RJ 45 with EtherNet/IP host tool from pyramid solution i.e. EIPScan tool.

Now I have given the values as below,

Service = 0x4E (Read holding register)

Class =0x44 (Modbus class)

Instance = 0x02 (Modbus Master address right ????? bcz i have tried with modbus slave address also)

Attribute = 0x00 (Not idea what to use so kept as zero)

Reuqest data = 9D 37 00 02 ( since Modbus master is reading the register 40247 ( 0x9D37) from modbus slave which is 4 byte[2 register] value)

I tried with both the sequence '9D 37 00 02' and '37 9D 02 00' but it doesnt work out :-(

I am getting error response " Parameter associted with the request was invalid'

Regards,

Sandeep
