Peer-to-Peer Messaging

5-3

 

 

Message to Configuration Nodes (Nodes 100 to 149)

When the ENI receives a message to Node Address 0 to 49, it looks up the TCP/IP address associated with the address at Nodes 100 to 149. The ENI preserves the original DF1 address when sending back a reply.

The following table illustrates the relationship between configuration addresses and their corresponding messaging address.

(1) See IMPORTANT note below about assigning Nodes to various devices.

 

In the ENI, node addresses 45 through 49 are

IMPORTANT

dedicated for sending messages to

 

 

 

1756-ENET/ControlLogix controllers. When sending

 

messages to a 1756-ENET/ControlLogix controller,

 

the controller MUST be in slot 0 of the ControlLogix

 

chassis for the message to be delivered to it.

Node addresses 0 through 44 are to be used for all other Ethernet devices, such as other 1769-L20 controllers connected to ENI modules and SLC 5/05 controllers.

To configure the route address (nodes 100 to 149), write a 485CIF message with 4 integer data words. An example is shown in the next section of this chapter.
