VIM Ethernet Device Configuration Data

Dear All
 
At Book Online, VIM Ethernet Device Configuration Data just for 2 type of PLC (PLC5 and SLC 505).
Any other type of PLC support VIM?
 
Thank you all
 
Best Regard

    What type of PLC are you using?

    You should check the Mynah Technologies website for the VIM manuals. There are at least 2 manuals. Ethernet/IP and Modbus TCP.

    For Ethernet/IP they have at least 2 types of communications. One is UCMM Client (I think they also call this Class 3) with DF1 encapsulation to communicate with SLCs and PLC 5 (uses typical Allen-Bradley N, F type register addresses). Control Logix can also do this. There is a separate section in Control Logix for mapping to PLC5 register addreses. Control Logix can also communicate via what is called a Class 1 servier. This can make the VIM look like logix I/O.
