Description:

• On top of an upper layer of open protocol Ethernet, EtherNet/IP is the protocol that houses Common Industrial Protocol (CIP: industrial protocols used in common, such as Device Net, ControlNet, CompoNet, etc.).
• By using the same objects and profiles, EtherNet/IP enables developers of DeviceNet, ControlNet, and CompoNet to ensure the interoperability of multi-band and lower network devices.
• The EIP module is the module for transmitting data between PCCs or between PLC and EtherNet/IP I/F IO module. It has two Ethernet Ports (Ethernet Port) and includes the switch function needed for the current STAR system.
