Hello
We are developing our own EtherNet/IP device (Relay). We have the stack running and all Implicit and Explicit messages work well.
My question is on the EDS file and the data types:
I’m trying to get the input and output tags of Class 1 messages (Allen Bradley 1769-L16ER-BB1B in Studio 5000) to match the data type, stipulated in the EDS file.
Seems like I can't paste images here, I will try to explain from my EDS and Studio 5000.
- In my EDS, Connection Manager - Exclusive Owner D, T->O Format refers to Assembly4.
- Assembly 4 refers to Parameter 1.
- Parameter 1 has a Data Type of UINT (0 - 65535).
- Then I Imported this EDS into Studio 5000.
- I select Connection Manager - Exclusive owner D.
- Then I can choose between SINT and INT, both of these data types are signed.
- How do I change the EDS file so that Studio 5000 will ONLY give me UNIT as an option?
Help will be appreciated. (EDS attached)
