Overview
2 Overview
In combination with a network-capable Beckhoff PC, the function TF6280 TwinCAT EtherNet/IP Slave can
be used to create an Ethernet/IP adapter.
Up to eight adapters can be parameterized with a physical interface. A virtual MAC address is formed,
through which up to eight EtherNet/IP adapters can be operated on a PC via an Ethernet interface.

Ordering information
TF6280-00pp TC3 EtherNet/IP slave
The function TF6280 TwinCAT EtherNet/IP Slave enables data exchange with an EtherNet/IP master. Both
multicast and broadcast are supported. The function TF6280 TwinCAT EtherNet/IP Slave can behave like
eight EtherNet/IP adapters.
TC1200 from build 4020
– – X X X X X X
For sample, it is possible to:
• connect a master with eight slaves
• connect up to eight masters with 8 slaves
This way more data can be transported or the master can be operated with different cycle times.
In an EtherNet/IP network, the TF6280 behaves as a slave device. No further configuration via an EtherNet/
IP master is required. The configurator in TwinCAT 3.1 is used for the configuration, e.g. by specifying the IP
settings and the number of data. The only requirement for a connection to be established is that the data
itself must be set in the same way in the EtherNet/IP master.
EtherNet/IP
EtherNet/IP (Ethernet Industrial Protocol, EIP) is a real-time Ethernet protocol, which was disclosed and
standardized by the ODVA (Open DeviceNet Vendor Association). The protocol is based on TCP, UDP and
IPv4.
Further information can be found at www.odva.org or https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethernet/IP.

Prerequisites
3 Prerequisites
Software
TF6280 is included in TwinCAT version 3.1 build 4020.28. No further installation is required.
Older product versions
Older versions are beta versions. Delete any older EtherNet/IP device configurations and create a
new configuration.
Hardware
For using the TF6280, the target system has to have an Intel® network chipset (see: Verifying the hardware
[}8]).
Beckhoff PC
Beckhoff PC systems are usually preconfigured for the operation of EtherNet/IP devices.
3.1 Verifying the hardware
Check whether the network interface is suitable
1. Create an EtherNet/IP slave. Right-click on “Devices” and add a new device (“Add New Item…”).
TF62808 Version: 1.1
2. Select “EtherNet/IP Adapter (Slave)”.
Prerequisites
3. Now select the adapter and find the appropriate Ethernet interface (Search…).
TF6280 9Version: 1.1
Prerequisites
4. Select a “real-time capable” interface under “Compatible devices”.
ð You can install the real-time driver.
No “real-time capable” network interface available
If the list contains no network interfaces under “Compatible devices”, the TF6280 function cannot be
used on the present hardware.
