Hello everyone.
I have seen a lot of devices that works with both Modbus TCP and EthernetIP, or both Modbus TCP and Profinet.
Why is hard to find a device that works with both EthernetIP and Profinet?
Is there some incompatibility issue that exists between brands?, I think the three protocols are open source but Modbus TCP seems to be more easy to find, I mean as a default option in adition with other TCP/IP protocols.
In fact the few devices I know that works with both Ethernet IP and Profinet, it is because it works with the whole range of communication protocol (Modbus RTU, Modbus TCP, Profinet, EthernetIP, DeviceNet, Profibus, and some more).
Thanks for reading!
