I am trying to set up the EIPMSG in do more designer 2.8 to connect with a Keyence IV3-600MA camera and I have the EDS file from keyence I just don't know how to interrupt it  I mainly need the port # the Class and instance set up attached is the EDS file with the extension changed to TXT  any help would be greatly appreciated

Definitely post this on ADC's Community Website https://community.automationdirect.com.  There is a lot of EtherNet/IP and EDS file knowledge by users across all of ADC's product lines

Based on what I am reading from the EDS file:

Input Assembly:
Class 4, Instance 100, Attribute 3.

Output Assembly:
Class 4, Instance 101, Attribute 3.

When reading the data from an Assembly object, use the Get_Attribute_Single service code 0x0E (14).  When writing data to an Assembly object, use the Set_Attribute_Single service 0x10 (16).

According to the EDS file...
The Output Data size can vary from 2 bytes to 104 bytes, with a default size of 12 bytes.
The Input Data size can vary from 2 bytes to 1400 bytes, with a default size of 394 bytes.

Things to keep in mind:
The maximum block size for a single EIPMSG request is 500 bytes.
The EDS file is used for configuring Class 1 Implicit Messaging connections.  The BRX currently only supports Unconnected Explicit Messaging.  Therefore, you may run into a few restrictions when attempting these Gets and Sets (e.g., you may be able to read input data, but not be able to write output data).

Give it a shot and see what happens.

MaEdwards Thank you for your help. I will give it a try and post what I find out. maybe if I am able to read input data like camera ready , or busy and ok nok then I can hard wire the out put for trigger but I was hoping to be able to change programs with an int. but I will see thank you again for your help.
