GM
EtherNet/IP
EtherNet/IP is a protocol that extends Common Industrial Protocol (CIP) to Ethernet. The use of Ethernet enables high-speed and periodic exchange of massive control and monitoring data between control devices placed at dispersed locations. Devices that support EtherNet/IP are available from many vendors. Among them, Rockwell Automation’s Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) and Remote I/O of the Allen-Bradley brand are widely used. Yokogawa’s GX, GP, and GM, equipped with the EtherNet/IP server function, supports communications with these PLCs.
ConfigurationComponents
• Scanner (Client)
A device that launches a request on EtherNet/IP. This is either a PLC or PC. For
the recorder, PLCs such as Allen-Bradley PLC-2, PLC-5, SLC 500, MicroLogix, CompactLogix, and ControlLogix represent a Scanner (Client).
• Adapter (Server)
A remote I/O device that the Scanner (Client) can access to read or write data. The
recorder is an Adapter (Server).
• Configuration tool
A tool used to configure the system. This is either a PC on which configuration software
has been installed or the software itself. Rockwell Automation RSLogix500 and RSLogix5000 and the communication driver software RSLinx are configuration tools.

Introduction of Features

What the Recorder Can Do

The recorder provides the following functions:
• Participate in an EtherNet/IP network as an Adapter (Server).
• Communicate with new and old Allen-Bradley PLCs such as MicroLogix, CompactLogix, ControlLogix, SLC 500, PLC-5, and PLC-2.
• Support both Explicit and I/O messages.
• PLCs can access internal data of the recorder.
Data Access
Input/Output channel data Read Computation channel Communication channel
The following shows examples of usage.
• Data on devices on a network can be recorded by a PLC to the recorder.
• Data measured by the recorder can be acquired by a PLC.
SettingsoftheRecorder
The recorder is ready to use after the following settings have been made.
• IP address and other settings required to connect to Ethernet
• Enabling of EtherNet/IP server function

Access to the Recorder

The recorder is a passive device on an Ethernet network. The recorder cannot launch a request. A PLC launches a request to the recorder. A request is called a “message”. There are two message types: Explicit message and I/O messages (Implicit message). An Explicit message, included in control logic, is used to access the recorder, only when required, and transmit data. An I/O message is used to transmit pre-specified recorder data at intervals.

2
data Read/write
The Recorder can also communicate with PLCs compatible with Programmable Controller Communication Command (PCCC) using conversion of PCCC to EtherNet/IP at the gateway. PCCC refers to serial communications that are also called DF1 communications. The recorder supports EtherNet/IP in which PCCC requests are encapsulated. It can communicate also with PLCs that support encapsulated PCCC.

ExplicitMessage
An Explicit message is a point-to-point, request/response-type communication.
SystemConfigurationonPLC
Use the configuration tool to code an Explicit message as an MSG instruction in the control logic. In the MSG instruction, set all the information including a target device, target register, and read/write. Download the created control logic to a PLC and execute it. On the recorder the data count to be accessed per MSG instruction should be 100 or less.
InCaseofPLC-2,PLC-5,andSLC
• Commands
When creating an MSG instruction, specify a command. The recorder supports the
following commands:

DataType
For a PLC, you can specify the type of read or write data using a file number or tag name in a command. However, the data type is fixed to INT16 for commands “PLC2 Unprotected Read/Write” and “PLC5 Word Range Read/Write.”
The data count on the recorder is as follows:
Model Type(Suffixcode)

I/O Messages

SystemConfigurationonPLC
An I/O message is also called an Implicit message. An I/O message is used to transmit pre­specified I/O data at intervals. An I/O message is exchanged via a connection path which is first set in RSLinx and read into RSLogix. A connection path defines the IP address of the recorder, communication port of the PLC, and distinction of input/output.
A device, once configured in RSLinx, can be downloaded into an RSLogix project. The recorder is configured as a “Generic Ethernet Module” in RSLogix.

Explanation
• The recorder data can be accessed using the INT32 or FLOAT type. Data can be accessed by the type based on the specified instance ID.
• The operation type “Producer” indicates a read-only instance and “Producer/Consumer” indicates a read/write instance.

Communication Considerations

AboutCommunicationInterval
DataUpdate
The recorder data is updated in a scan interval. Even if a PLC accesses the data at shorter intervals than the recorder scan intervals, the data is updated only at scan intervals.
Communication Interval
A PLC should access the recorder at intervals of 100 ms or longer. * This is required to maintain compatibility with other protocols supported by the recorder
than EtherNet/IP.
AccesstoNon-existentData
If non-existent data is accessed, either of the following operations occur.
• 0 is read if non-existent data is read.
• Nothing is done if non-existent data is written.
Specialdata
Special data will have the following values:
Channel status Datatype
Integer (Int) Floating(Float)
+Over, +Burnout Maximum expressible value
–Over, –Burnout Minimum expressible value

–
Example: Channel status is “–Over”

Specifications

The following table shows the basic specifications of the EtherNet/IP server function of the recorder.
Specification Description

1 A “session,” a framework of connection management in the encapsulation protocol layer
of EtherNet/IP, provides similar functions as a TCP connection to carry out message communications.
2 Although multiple connections can be made in one session, the total number of connections
cannot exceed the maximum number of connections.
3 44818/tcp is used mainly for Explicit messages, 2222/udp for I/O messages, and 44818/udp for
communications of response to RSWho of RSLinx. 4 CSP/PCCC (Allen Bradley Ethernet) is not supported. 5 The description of common object is omitted.

ExampleofanExplicitMessageUsingRSLogix5000
MSG
...
This is an example of using RSLogix 5000 to configure an Explicit message to be sent to the recorder by a PLC supporting the CIP Data Table Read/Write command. This section assumes that the reader is familiar with the operations of RSLogix 5000 and RSLinx and that RSLogix 5000 can communicate with the target recorder via RSLinx.
Tag
Making tags initially will be useful. Go to Controller Organizer (a tree on the left side of the screen) and open Controller Tag to make a tag with Data Type of Message (Name the tag as MSG1). Also, make a tag used to retain data to be written to the recorder (Name the tag as DATATransfer and store 10 FLOAT values). Make a bit used to launch a message as WriteMessageBit.
Controller Tags
Name DataType
DATATransfer REAL [10] MSG1 Message WriteMessageBit BOOL
MSGInstruction
Go to the Input/Output tab, then the Ladder Element toolbar to select MSG. The MSG block is inserted as ladder output. Tag MSG1 is assigned to the MSG block.

(DN) (ER)
Message Message Control
MSG1
Make the MSG block settings (Click the
button in the MSG block). The following shows an example in which the PLC writes data to the communication channel data C001 to C010 on the recorder. Set the Message Type as “CIP Data Table Write,” Source Element as “DATATransfer” (a tag in the PLC described earlier), Number of Element as “10” (which can be set to a larger value if more data should be read or written per message). Set the Destination Element as “real [6000]. “This corresponds to communication channel data C001 on the recorder.

Next, go to the Communication tab and set a connection path to the recorder. The path name should consist of the PLC Ethernet port name (LocalENB in this example), comma, 2, comma, and the recorder IP address in this order.

Example of an Explicit Message Using RSLogix 5000
If the connection path to the recorder is configured using RSLinx, the connection path is changed to an automatically named pathname (GX of ETHERNET-MODULE GX shown in the figure below in this example). If the recorder is not configured, the I/O Configuration tree does not show ETHERNET-MODULE GX. The connection path in the Communication tab is not replaced, either.
MessageLaunchLogic
Lastly, configure the message launch logic. In the example shown in the figure below, the MSG block is launched and writes data to the recorder when the WriteMessageBit is On. At the same time, the WriteMessageBit is changed to Off and writing is ended.
