Two Day Seminar for Developers and Decision-makers
EtherNet/IP extends commercial off-the-shelf Ethernet to the Common Industrial Protocol (CIP) - the same upper-layer protocol and object model found in DeviceNet. CIP allows to apply the same objects and profiles for DeviceNet and EtherNet/IP plug-and-play interoperability among devices from multiple vendors and in multiple sub-nets. Combined, DeviceNet and EtherNet/IP promote transparency from sensors to the enterprise software.
Target Group and Objectives
The seminar aims at putting the participants in a position to assess the potential of EtherNet/IP and to implement EtherNet/IP in their own devices. It is intended in particular for developers and system designers who want a solid introduction to this technology.
