Product Overview

The Omron NJ Ethernet driver manages communications between OPC clients and Omron Sysmac NJ EtherNet/IP PLCs via the EtherNet/IP protocol. It also supports Common Industrial Protocol (CIP) routing to access additional PLCs via EtherNet/IP without requiring the use of CX-Compolet. Kepware automatically optimizes data acquisition based on client demand and ensures data integrity through extensive error handling.

Supports EtherNet/IP over TCP/IP
Supports Common Industrial Protocol (CIP) routing from one Omron NJ device to another. Features a CIP-configurable packet size from 500 bytes to 1996 bytes per packet.
Supports symbolic addressing of basic data types and structures. Supported data types include the following: BOOL, SINT, USINT, INT, UINT, DINT, UDINT, LINT, ULINT, REAL, LREAL, and String.
Supports read blocking and multi-servicing of writes to arrays to optimize performance when reading and writing to multiple items within an array
Supports Client Arrays for referencing contiguous array elements by the client
Supports Automatic Tag Generation, featuring direct interrogation of the controller and the ability to map structured data on the controllers into multi-level tag groups
Supports the reading of system variables defined on the controller
Communicates directly with Omron Sysmac NJ devices over EtherNet/IP without any dependency on third-party products (such as Sysmac Gateway and CX-Compolet)
