[JeremyM]

Looks like ODVA posted the .EDS for this new family of drives.

Interesting finds:

• Native 32-bit parameters (some 64-bit).
• 2x Ethernet links (twisted pair M12).
• 1x TCPIP.
• So it's native DLR, no dual-IP.
• Much larger IO assembly.
• Onboard discrete IO.

New CIP objects/services:

• 0x37: Expanded CIP file support from 2x static instances: 10x dynamic instances.
• 0x5D: Security
• 0x5E: EtherNet/IP Security
• 0x5F: Certificate Management
• 0x3AC: AB Ingress/Egress (IP / port access rule sets? a soft firewall?)
• Event logging of flavors: config, backup, log, discovery, auth, sys, cipsec.
• SYSLOG format.
• Timestamps to the nanosecond (no indication of CIP Time Sync).
• Security events imply DNS support.
