EtherNet/IP Operation Manual

1.1 Introduction

1.1.1 EtherNet/IP

EtherNet/IP (“IP” st ands for “Industrial P rot oco l” ) is an industrial Ethernet network managed by ODV A, Inc. (formerly Open
DeviceNet Vendors Association, Inc.), a global trade and standards development organization.

EtherNet/IP works on a TCP/UDP/IP based Ethernet network and uses most widely deployed collections of Ethernet
standards to provide a broad range of applications in different industries that require high-speed and stability including
Factory Automation (FA), Building Automation (BA), Process Automation (PA) and many more.

Delta covers a full range of controller and drive products supported by EtherNet/IP, including Programmable Logic
Controllers (PLC), inverters, Human Machine Interfaces (HMI) and so on. Refer to section 9.1 for a full product list
supported by EtherNet/IP. In addition, users can also use the EDS file to connect to the EtherNet/IP devices of other
brands. Delta EtherNet/IP software, the EIP Builder, can be called or run independently through the ISPSoft v3.06.

1.2 Definition

Term Definition

ODVA Open DeviceNet Vendor Association for EtherNet/IP

EtherNet/IP, an industrial Ethernet network, provides interoperability for system providers. IP

EIP

I/O Connection Via the I/O connection to connect to EtherNet/IP and to exchange data cyclically.

Explicit Message

RPI

ACD Address Conflict Detection to detect IP address duplications.

Produced/Consumed
TAG (P/C TAG)

stands for Industrial Protocol. The term “EIP” (EtherNet/IP) will be used throughout this
manual.

Connect to EtherNet/IP and to exchange data non-cyclically. Data will be exchanged piece
by piece via instructions.

Requested Packet Interval, via the I/O connection to connect to EtherNet/IP to exchange
data at regular time intervals.

 TAGs are the methods used for assigning and referencing memory locations for

Rockwell PLCs, the same as the registers for Delta PLCs.

 Produced TAG: A TAG that a controller makes available for other controllers. Multiple

controllers can simultane ou sly consu me (re ceive) the dat a . A produced TAG sends its
data to consumed TAGs (consumers) without using logic.

 Consumed TAG: A TAG that receives the data of a prod uc ed TAG. The dat a ty pe of the

consumed TAG and the produced TAG must be matched (including any array
dimensions).

 The data is transferred over Ethernet/IP, for example, PLC-A needs data from PLC-B,

so PLC-B sends the data to PLC-A. Therefore, PLC-A is the producer and PLC-B is
the consumer.

EIP Scanner The master station is called EIP Scanner in EtherNet/IP.
EIP Adapter The slave station is called EIP Adapter in EtherN et/ IP.

DLR

configuration tools to help you identify EtherNet/IP products and easily commission them on
a network.

Device Level Ring (DLR) provides fault-tolerant netw ork desi gn for dai sy-chain and linear
topology. The DLR protocol provides high network availability in a ring topology and was
intended primarily for implementation in EtherNet/IP end-devices that hav e tw o Ethern et
ports and embedded switch technology, providing fast network fault detection and
reconfiguration to support the most demanding control applications.

1.3 Features

1.3.1 Delta EIP Architectu r e

This typical Delta EI P arc hit ecture in cludes EI P Scanner and Adapter; data mapping can be achieved between d evice s via
an I/O connection and explicit message.
 The AHCPU5X1-EN series which includes AHCPU501-EN, AHCPU511-EN, AHCPU521-EN and AHCPU531-EN

support Ethernet single port communication and for network installation, it is required to employ EtherNet/IP
devices.

 The AHCPU560-EN2, AH10EN-5A and AHRTU-ETHN-5A series support Ethernet dual port and DLR function; thus

it can install, configure, and maintain linear as well as device-level ring (DLR) networks by using EtherNet/IP
devices with embedded switch technology.

1.3.2 Product Features

 Flexibility

- Flexible topology: EIP devices may include an Ethernet single port as well as Ethernet dual port, and provide
applicable networks such as linear topology, ring topology and ring topology for faster expansion and easier
management.

- EtherNet/IP works on a TCP/UDP/IP based Ethernet network, uses most widely deployed collections of
Ethernet standards and supports Wifi connection. Even for personnel with no IT background, the network can
still be built up easily.

- Applicable networks include linear topology, ring topology, star topology, Ethernet, EtherNet/IP, one or more
LANs, etc. Configuration can be set via a USB device or an interface.

 Simplicity

- Via a connector: Delta provides a full range of product line, including human machine interfaces (HMI),
programmable logic controllers (PLC) and inverter drives, for application in an industri al operation. Simply via a
RJ-45 connector, a network can be built up, saving costs on cables and other connecting tools.

- Single network: In replace with the 3-tier industrial architecture, single network architecture provides 100Mbps
high-speed cyclical and non-cyclical data mapping function, ensuring a complete network diagnosis and
effectively shortening debugging time.

- Graphical user interface designed software: The EIP Builder is graphical user interface designed for intuitive
operation.

 Integration

- Data mapping: The EIP Builder provides a consistent setting interface, allowing users to reduce the time to
learn and set up configurations easily.

- Listed device parameters: The EIP Builder presents a parameter list of Delta devices. Instead of looking up in
the user manual, users can quickly check on the para meters from the list.

- EDS file: Users can connect to Delta and other brand EtherNet/IP products via the EDS files.

3.2.4 Maximum Transmission Speed of Delta Products

The EtherNet/IP transmission speed is expressed in terms of packets per second (pps). In addition, the actual
transmission speed is affected by the requested packet interval (RPI) and the scan time of the CPU as an EIP
scanner. Below is a list regarding the maximum transmission speed of Delta EIP products for your reference.

Delta EtherNet/IP software, EIP Builder, is embedded in the ISPSoft. It can be called or run independently
through the ISPSoft software (applicable with version 3.06 and later versions).

4.1 Access EIP Builder

The EIP Builder can be ca lled from Delta EIP Scanner’s HW CONFIG in the ISPSoft. It can also be called
independently to set up parameters for the Adapter. Delta EIP Scanner is equipped with the EtherNet/IP
communication PLC and the EtherNet/IP module. Refer to chapter 9.3 for a list of Delta EIP Scanner products
supported by the EIP Builder.

4.1.1 Setting Up EIP Scanner

 Running Process
Run the EIP Builder via an EIP Sc an ner ( s ee be lo w). When using a Delta EIP Scanner, users need to set up

an EIP module through the HWCONFIG in the ISPSoft.

 Operation Steps

1. Open ISPSoft : Find ISPSoft 3.06 from the start menu in Windows. Click the start menu and go to All

programs > Delta Industrial Automation > ISPSoft 3.06

2. Create a new project: Click File > New and you will see the Create a New Project window.

3. Select a PLC: Select a PLC product that supports the EIP builder in the Create a New Project window.

4. Open the HWCONFIG: Double click the HWCONFIG option under the Project.

5. Create an EIP module (AH10EN-5A):

 Select the AH10EN-5A from the Network Module in the Product List.
 Drag the selected AH10EN-5A to the CPU’s main backplane.

6. Save and download the HWCONFIG：Click Save to save the HWCONFIG settings and then click
Download to PLC to download the file to PLC.

7. Open the EIP Builder:

7.1 Right-click the AH10EN-5A on the CPU’s main backplane and you will see the EIP Builder. Double

click it to open the EIP Builder.

7.2 Right-click the AHCPU5x1-EN on the CPU’s main backplane and you will see the EIP Builder.

Double click it to open the EIP Builder.

4.2 Set up the IP Address

This section will provide an overview of how to set up the IP address for AH10EN-5A IP and
AHCPU5x1-EN/AHCPU560-EN2. The IP address should be set up before configuring EIP related parameters
or data mapping settings.

4.2.1 IP Address Types

The AH10EN-5A series and AHCPU5x1-EN/AHCPU560-EN2 series supports 3 types of IP addressing,
BOOTP, DHCP and static IP address.

4.2.2 Set up the IP Address (Static IP)

 Operation Steps:
When using an EIP product with a static IP address, users need to set up the IP address through the

HWCONFIG in the ISPSoft.

Refer to section 4.1.1 for how to set up an EIP module through the HWCONFIG in the ISPSoft.

1. Configure the network parameters

1.1 AH10EN-5A

 Double-click the AH10EN-5A in the HWCONFIG to open the Parameter Setting page.
 Set up the IP address under the Network Parameters node. Once the setup is done, click OK to leave

this page.
