I need to pass variables to and from a 3rd party controller that supports EthernetIP. The machine I need to install it on has a SLC5/05 and I would like to using generic messaging to get at this data.
The developers of this product have only seemed to consider its use with RSLogix5000 series controllers. Attached is an example of that. I have an ML1400 I am trying to get to access these same memory areas but am having little success.
In my MSG block for reading I have selected CIP Generic with DT N10:0 with size of 18 bytes (9 integers). I have selected service code E for "read Assembly" Class 4 and Attribute 3. The instance I set to 16 to match the config in the Logix5000 program. In the multihop tab I have the IP of the controller. Controller pings fine and shows up on the network no problem.
Is what I am trying to do even possible? If so, what am I doing wrong?
