Description
A specific EtherNet/IP configurator is already integrated in the standard setup of the CODESYS Development System. To use, the user needs a license that is either already deposited in the target system or can be booked afterwards 2. In addition, a protocol stack is required, which realizes the EtherNet/IP communication on the configured Ethernet port. This stack is delivered together with the license in the form of a CODESYS library.
If CODESYS EtherNet/IP adapter is licensed on the device to be programmed, it can communicate with connected scanners and serve connected EtherNet/IP modules. All parameters for the communication are specified in the configurator. An adapter EDS file is included.

No limit;
By default, the included EDS files support only one input and output assembly.
However, this can be extended by creating appropriate EDS files.
In this way, I/Os can be based on several assemblies or Connections are split.

- Device manufacturers can equip their products with CODESYS EtherNet/IP adapters and license them in advance. In the SoftPLC systems of 3S-Smart Software Solutions, e.g. B. CODESYS Control Win or CODESYS Control for Raspberry Pi is already included in the license.
- Users can extend individual, compatible devices with CODESYS EtherNet/IP Adapter SL. The license is stored on a special device dongle (CODESYS Key) or a software licensing container (soft key) on the desired device.
Requirements
Programming system | CODESYS Development System V3.5.17.0 or higher |
Runtime system | CODESYS Control V3.5.12.0 or higher |
Supported platforms/devices | Note: Use the Device Reader project to determine the functions supported by the controller. Device Reader is available free of charge from the CODESYS Store. |
Additional requirements |
|
Limitations | CT19.1 Certification requires runtime system version 3.5.19.0 or newer on certain operating systems (e.g. Windows, VxWorks) |
Licensing | Single device license: The license can be used on the controller on which the CODESYS runtime system is installed. The license activation is done on a software-based license container (soft container), which is permanently bound to the control system. Alternatively, the license can be stored on a CODESYS key (USB dongle). By redefining the CODESYS Key, the license can be used on another controller. |
Required accessories | Optional: CODESYS Key |
