Hi all,

How to frame message to exchange data between 2 device that supports open TCP/IP communication confined with IEEE 802.3 standards.

My case is to exchange data between Siemens S7 CP443-1 and AB 20-COMM-E module.

Making connection and hardware configuration in Siemens is clear. But framing message is not known.

Please help.

Thanks

engg_ice,

Is your application connecting an S7 with an AB drive?

What protocol(s) does the Siemens S7 CP443-1 support? Is it strictly Modbus/TCP?

And how about the AB 20-COMM-E module? Is it strictly EtherNet/IP?

If those are your protocol options for each, then you would need a Modbus/TCP <-> EtherNet/IP gateway to act as a protocol translator.

I've had a lot of positive experiences using the Digi One IAP (www.digi.com) in these sorts of applications, and they are easy to set up and very reliable.
