Creating the EtherNet/IP slave in other EtherNet/IP masters

All the information you need is provided in the Settings dialog:

You need

• the IP address of the adapter (see Creating an EtherNet/IP slave)
• the “Assembly Instance” numbers (see Settings tab)
• the number of data (see Settings tab)
• the “Configuration Instance” number 128 length 0
• the “Input Instance” number 129 length 12
• the “Output Instance”-number 130 length 12

The instance numbers are always the same. An export of the EDS file only contains the instance numbers. The number of data still has to be entered.

The EtherNet/IP device (slave) can be integrated via a “generic node” structure or via the EDS file.
