Description
A specific EtherNet/IP configurator is already integrated in the standard setup of the CODESYS Development System. To use this, the user requires a license, which is either already stored in the target system 1 or can be added later 2. In addition, a protocol stack is required for implementing the EtherNet/IP communication on the configured Ethernet port. This stack is supplied with the license as a CODESYS library.
If the CODESYS EtherNet/IP Adapter is licensed on the device to be programmed, then it can communicate with connected scanners and operate EtherNet/IP modules. All parameters for communication are predefined in the configurator. An adapter-EDS-file is included in the standard delivery.

max. Number of Input/Output Assemblies |
No restriction;
The supplied EDS files support only one Input and Output Assembly by default.
But this can be extended by creating own corresponding EDS files.
In this way, I/Os can be distributed over several Assemblies/Connections.

Device manufacturers can equip their products with CODESYS EtherNet/IP Adapter and license them in advance. The use license is already included in SoftPLC systems from 3S-Smart Software Solutions (for example, CODESYS Control Win and CODESYS Control for Raspberry Pi).

End users can extend single, compatible devices with CODESYS EtherNet/IP Adapter SL. The license is saved on a special device dongle (CODESYS Key) or software license container (Soft Key) on the device.
