Communication Connections Chapter 5

EtherNet/IP, supported on the Micro820 controller, makes use of the standard
Ethernet TCP/IP protocol. The Micro820 controller supports up to 16
simultaneous EtherNet/IP Client connections and 16 simultaneous EtherNet/IP
Server connections.

CIP Symbolic Addressing

Users may access any global variable through CIP Symbolic addressing except for
system and reserved variables.

One- or two-dimension arrays for simple data types are supported (for example,
ARRAY OF INT[1..10, 1..10]) are supported but arrays of arrays (for example,
ARRAY OF ARRAY) are not supported. Array of strings are also supported.

CIP Client Messaging

CIP Generic and CIP Symbolic messages are supported on Micro800 controllers
through the Ethernet and serial ports. These client messaging features are enabled
by the MSG_CIPSYMBOLIC and MSG_CIPGENERIC function blocks.
