Dana Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 Has anybody heard of using AutoIt to communicate with industrial devices using Ethernet/IP? (in this case "IP" is "Industrial Protocol", not IP address.) I have a series of scripts that currently communicate with devices with RS232 and it works well, but for various reasons we're moving toward Ethernet/IP for these systems.

water Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 According to Wikipedia Ethernet/IP uses UDP on layer 4. So you would need to use UDP* functions.

TheXman Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 Actually, according to Wikipedia, it uses both TCP & UDP: EtherNet/IP classifies Ethernet nodes into predefined device types with specific behaviors. Among other things, this enables: Transfer of basic I/O data via User Datagram Protocol (UDP)-based implicit messaging Uploading and downloading of parameters, setpoints, programs and recipes via TCP (i.e., explicit messaging.) Polled, cyclic and change-of-state monitoring via UDP. One-to-one (unicast), one-to-many (multicast), and one-to-all (broadcast) communication via IP. EtherNet/IP makes use of TCP port number 44818 for explicit messaging and UDP port number 2222 for implicit messaging CryptoNG UDF: Cryptography API: Next Gen jq UDF: Powerful and Flexible JSON Processor | jqPlayground: An Interactive JSON Processor Xml2Json UDF: Transform XML to JSON | HttpApi UDF: HTTP Server API | Roku Remote: Example Script About Me How To Ask Good Questions On Technical And Scientific Forums (Detailed) | How to Ask Good Technical Questions (Brief) "Any fool can know.
