Ethernet/IP Communication Using NI-Industrial Communications for EtherNet/IP 16.0

I could offer you a short MS-Teams meeting on Tuesday or Friday and we could talk about it. If you are interested, please contact me at a.wais@m-a-r-s.de

Can you explain your VI and also how you determine what sequence of bits to send for your specific command?

[isaias308123]

the cip library allows you to access read and write registers, the order is indicated in the smc manual for example:

access word 0 and then bit 0 which corresponds to in0.

it would be easier to explain it to you by video.

[isaias308123]

The most important thing would be to know the CIP protocol, how it is encapsulated, TCP/IP and UDP sockets.

to be able to be used in other industrial devices.

smc's equipment is very easy to use, the data transmission required is not that complicated.

The smc equipment is very simple to use, the data transmission required is not that complex compared to a Powerflex drive, kinetix AB or a balluff equipment with io link.

Hi Wais,

Where can I download this LabVIEW Ethernet/IP driver which can communicate directly with the JXC91 ?  I  would like to try it out as was checking how to control the SMC JXC91 with Labview using Ethernet/IP.  Thanks a lot for the help.

Best Regards,

Sean

Hi, I'm using the same LabVIEW Ethernet/IP library.

Descargar NI-Industrial Communications for Ethernet/IP - NI

I'm developing the platform using the CIP protocol, with ESP32 + W5500. At the same time, a LabVIEW platform with CIP protocol, handling Encapsulation packets. In LabVIEW, I visualize the devices and can register them via Ethernet/IP, simulating a PLC.

If you're interested, I can help you communicate with the JXC91. It’s quite straightforward using the CIP protocol (over TCP). I can also assist you in implementing real-time communication via UDP—this is more complex but faster, ensuring uninterrupted data transmission

best regards

Hello Sean,
Kirschenhofer Maschinen GmbH has developed a functional LabVIEW driver for EtherNET/IP communication. This can be downloaded free of charge from VIPM. For communication with the JXC91, you will need to contact Kirschenhofer. A license model is available for this. Please contact if you have any questions.
