Recently we had a "Made in China"portable line installed Weiview TouchPanel MT8102iE, it has capability to connect CompactLogix and ControlLogix over EtherNET/IP, but it doesn't support PLC5 over EtherNET/IP. For PLC5, it only provide RS232 via CH0 of PLC5. Are there any workarounds to connect/communicate our PLC5 over EtherNET/IP Network?

If I remember correctly, PLC-5's communicate using EtherNet/IP-PCCC, and newer devices use EtherNet/IP-CIP. So, you may need some type of protocol converter, don't know if one exist or not. Later firmware PLC-5's may support CIP, someone more knowledgeable may know..

I used TCPing.exe to ping PLC5 processor, 2222 got response, 44818 failed. Does the ping result mean this 1785-ENET A or PLC-5/L80C15 processor is EtherNET/IP-PCCC only?
