2. Terms and Definitions
Term Explanation and Definition
Node Programmable controllers and devices are connected to the EtherNet/IP
network via the EtherNet/IP ports. The EtherNet/IP recognizes each
EtherNet/IP port connected to the network as one node.
When a device with two EtherNet/IP ports is connected to the
EtherNet/IP network, the EtherNet/IP recognizes this device as two
nodes.
The EtherNet/IP achieves the communications between programmable
controllers or the communications between programmable controllers
and devices by exchanging data between these nodes connected to the
network.
Tag
Aminimum unit of the data that is exchanged on the EtherNet/IP network
is called a tag. The tag is defined as a network variable or as a physical
address, and it is allocated to the memory area of each device.
Tag Set In the EtherNet/IP network, a data unit that consists of two or more tags
can be exchanged. The data unit consisting of two or more tags for the
data exchange is called a tag set. Up to eight tags can be configured per
tag set for OMRON programmable controllers.
Tag data link In the EtherNet/IP, the tag and tag set can be exchanged cyclically
between nodes without using the user program. This standard feature on
the EtherNet/IP is called a tag data link.
Connection A connection is used to exchange data as a unit within which data
concurrency is maintained. The connection consists of tags or tag sets.
Creating the concurrent tag data link between the specified nodes is
called a "connection establishment". When the connection is established,
the tags or tag sets that configure the connection are exchanged
between the specified nodes concurrently.
Originator and
Target To perform tag data links, one node requests the opening of a communications line called a "connection".
The node that requests to open the connection is called an "originator",
and the node that receives the request is called a "target".
Tag data link
parameter The tag data link parameter is the setting data to perform the tag data link. It includes the data to set tags, tag sets, and connections.

EtherNet/IP Settings

6. EtherNet/IP Settings
This section describes specifications of parameters and the tag data link allocation that are set
in this document.
6.1. Parameters
The parameter settings that are set in this document are as follows:
6.1.1. EtherNet/IP Communications Settings
The parameters required for connecting the PLC and the FH Sensor Controller via
EtherNet/IP are given below.
Item PLC (node 1) FH Sensor Controller (node 2)
Unit number 0 -
Node address 1 2
IP address 192.168.250.1 192.168.250.2
Subnet mask 255.255.255.0 255.255.255.0
Fieldbus - EtherNet/IP
Output control - Handshaking (Default)
Timeout [s] - 10.0 (Default)
*In this document, the gateway setting is unnecessary because the connection is made in the
same segment.
Precautions for Correct Use
In order to prevent a phenomenon that a change in the status of each signal cannot be
detected by the target device, it is recommended that you set the Output control setting for
the FH Sensor Controller to Handshaking. When the Output control of the FH Sensor
Controller is set to None, the originator device may not correctly detect a change in the status
of a signal from the FH Sensor Controller if RPI is longer than the output time (ON/OFF) on
the FH Sensor Controller.
For details, refer to EtherNet/IP Communications Cycle (RPI) in Communicating with
EtherNet/IP in Section 2. Methods for Connecting and Communicating with External Devices
of the Vision Sensor FH/FZ5 Series Vision System User’s Manual for Communications
Settings (Cat. No. Z342).

EtherNet/IP Settings

6.1.2. Connection Settings
The connection settings of the FH Sensor Controller are shown below.
On the FH Sensor Controller, set the connection type to Point to Point for both input and
output. Set the Timeout Value so that it is longer than the FH Sensor Controller’s
measurement processing time. When the measurement interval is short, the measurement
processing load is high, or command processing for operations such as scene group changing
is time-consuming, the FH Sensor Controller prioritizes measurement and control processing
over communication processing. As a result, communication between an external device and
the FH Sensor Controller may be temporarily interrupted, and a communication error may
occur. In this case, set the communication error timeout time longer than the FH Sensor
Controller’s processing time.
Connection allocation Set value
Connection I/O Type Consume Data From / Produce Data To

Connection Type
Point to Point connection
Output Tag Set D10000-[20 Byte]
Connection Type
