Molex Ethernet Protocol development kits are the most open, powerful and cost-effectivesolutions for customers who want to embed EtherNet/IP protocol into industrial controllers andfield devices.
Molex protocol-software development kits, (also known as stacks) enable customers to quicklyembed EtherNet/IP protocols for both Scanner and Adapter devices thereby reducing theircosts and time-to-market. The stacks enable customers to design EtherNet/IP industrial devicessuch as PLC couplers, PC-based interface cards, robot controllers and industrial PCs. Or by usingthe Adapter only (slave only) stack designing products such as I/O modules, robots, field instruments,regulators, operator panels, etc.
Molex protocol stacks are completely hardware independent and support 32-bit and 64-bitmicroprocessors running operating systems real-time or not.
For the EtherNet/IP Scanner, a fully customizable EtherNet/IP network configuration anddiagnosis software enables integrator to provide their company branded tool.
The development kit package includes ANSI C source code, user reference guide, EDS sample,STC configuration file for ODVA conformance tool, samples of implementation for variousoperating systems and tools (EIP_Tools, PCT).
