Ethernet/IP Adapter Linkable Object

Hi,

I have an Ethernet/IP Adapter Linkable Object for RCX.

There is an Demo project on the CD.

What are the differences between the task EIPDEMO and SHMDEMO ?

Br,
Rainer

Hi Rainer,

the SHMDEMO uses the internal DPM and you use the standard cifX commands to access the stack and the process data's.

The EIPDEMO uses the package interface and you have to controll everything manually by your self.

Both examples will do the same result. They will communicate with the EthernetIP network. Only the way, how to do, and how to use the libraries is different.

The SHMDEMO is the easier one.

HI AJ,

Can I test the EIPDEMO task with an CIFX50 DNM board ?

The SHMDEMO Task communicate with the CIFX50 DNM board.

How would you test EthernetIP with a DeviceNET network? :?:

You can use the SHMDEMO, exchange the protocol libraries and the header files, exchange the warmstart package and yes, the same example can work as DeviceNET or what ever.

HI AJ,

Sorry i mean an CIFX 50 -RE card with channel 0 as Ethernet/IP.

Yes, you can use the SHMDEMO on your evaluation board with the EthernetIP-Slave application and you can use a cifX50-RE as an EthernetIP Master.

This is the easiest way to build a small test network.

HI AJ,

And the EIPDEMO with an CIFX50 -RE card ?

It is the same.

Both examples are doing the same :!:

But I wrote this already.
