Network Connection over EtherNet/IP
The amplifier EMGZ309._.EIP is able to communicate with other devices over an
Ethernet network. CIP (Common Industrial Protocol) is used as the protocol for the
data link. The amplifier acts as a so called “Producer” and the machine control (or
PLC) as the “Consumer”.
5.1
EtherNet/IP Specification:
Physical layer: Ethernet IEEE 802.3.
Transport protocol: TCP/IP und UDP
Standard: CIP IEC 61158
Conformity: CPF 2 (Communication Profile Family 2) IEC 61784-1
5.2
Amplifier Functionality over EtherNet/IP
Basically all functions for configuration and calibration can be performed over
EtherNet/IP. Furthermore, the measured tension values are cyclically propagated
over the network and made available to the Consumer (PLC).
5.3
Integration of EMGZ309._.EIP in an Ethernet Network
In order to integrate the amplifier in an Ethernet network and enable data transfer
over it following conditions must be fulfilled:
✔
An EMGZ309 amplifier with the option EtherNet/IP (EIP) must be used.
✔
The IP-Address must be assigned in the fix address block and must be
unambiguously. It may only exist once in the network.
✔
The network mask must correspond with the used device configuration.
If these prerequisites are given, the controller will recognise the amplifier as an
EtherNet/IP device in the network and be able to communicate with it. The interface
information for EMGZ309._.EIP is defined in an EDS-file.
EDS-files for EMGZ309._.EIP can be downloaded from the FMS webpage.
