EtherNet/IP Adapter Data Group Configuration: Using Strings
Any String Data Types will be mapped to a String Assembly and will not display in the Input/Output Data
Groups.
When using a String Data Type, the first byte is set aside for the length. Each String may have 99
characters.
When using 1 String, use Input Assembly 101/Output Assembly 113 where Byte 0 would be the length
and Byte 1-99 would contain the data.
When using 2 Strings, use Input Assembly 102/Output Assembly 114 where Byte 0 would be the length
of String 1 and Byte 1-99 would contain the data of String 1 and Byte 100 would be the length of String 2
and Byte 101-199 would contain the data of String 2.
There is similar behavior when using 3 and 4 Strings.
