4.2.6 EthernetIP Control and Feedback Data
The iSPA with Intelli-Motion uses Class 1 I/O messaging for the control and feedback messages. The EDS gives the
controller the assembly and instance data to connect. The following tables define the data contained in each message.
The UDT, as described in
, provides a convenient way to access and update the specific feedback
and control variables.
