Explicit Messaging

Data can be accessed from the Guardmaster EtherNet/IP network interface by
non-Logix automation controllers that support EtherNet/IP explicit messaging.

This example shows the configuration of an explicit message from a MicroLogix™
1100 controller to the Guardmaster EtherNet/IP network interface:

1. Set up the MSG instruction to read the data assembly from the

Guardmaster EtherNet/IP network interface by configuring the following
fields.
Channel: 1 (Integral) (this is the Ethernet port)
Communication Command: CIP Generic
Data Table Address (Receive): N7:0 (choose an address that supports

60 bytes)

Size in Bytes (Receive): 60
Extended Routing Info File(RIX): RIX10:0
Service: Read Assembly
Class: 04
Instance: 100 (64h)
Attribute: 03

2. Set the Ethernet network address of the Guardmaster EtherNet/IP

network interface as the target of the message instruction:

Appendix

D

describes the individual members of the data returned from

the message instruction.
