Industrial control is evolving rapidly. While Modbus remains a staple, the shift to EtherNet/IP is gaining momentum. Fun fact: in this context, IP stands for Industrial Protocol—not Internet Protocol! Looks like the creators wanted to keep us on our toes!
Exciting news! We’re thrilled to introduce EtherNet/IP to TinyCLR OS, supporting both Adapter and Scanner modes. This experimental feature may evolve, and we’re eager for your feedback on commercial use cases to drive further development. A huge thanks to our dedicated customers who made this milestone possible!
Due to the large amount of needed resources, this is only available on SITCore SC20 device and not on SITCore SC13.
