Interfacing the ControlLogix PLC over Ethernet/IP
K. U. Kasemir, L. R. Dalesio
Abstract
The Allen-Bradley ControlLogix line of pro-grammable logic controllers (PLCs) offers several in-terfaces: Ethernet, ControlNet, DeviceNet, RS-232 and others. The ControlLogix Ethernet interface module 1756-ENET uses EtherNet/IP, the ControlNet protocol, encapsulated in Ethernet packages, with specific service codes. A driver for the Experimental Physics and Industrial Control System (EPICS) has been developed that utilizes this EtherNet/IP protocol for controllers running the vxWorks RTOS as well as a Win32 and Unix/Linux test program. Features, per-formance and limitations of this interface are presented.
