RBE/ECOM100 problems

[Elecnut33]

I have a H2-Ecom100 connected to a hub with a Rice Lake weight indicator and a C-more touchscreen.
I am trying to send a ASCII command to the rice lake to receive the weight value back to the PLC. I am using the RBE example for the communication. I have the MAC ID and IP address for the rice lake card, as well as the setting values in the appropriate V locations, and I am using the correct busy/error bits for slot 7 which is where the card is. The command (XN#1) is loaded to V2020.

I have yet to successfully complete the send. The busy/error bits seem to be operating properely, and my packets sent is incrementing. But, I have yet to receive anything in the rice lake, I have a small program written (in the rice lake) to watch that port and notify me when something is received.

Now the interesting thing is I have been watching traffic with wireshark, and here is where I am confused. My addresses are as follows. PC-192.168.1.10; PLC-192.168.1.50; rice lake- 192.168.1.110; & c-more- 192.168.1.90. When I watch the traffic with wireshark, the message I am sending to .110, is actually being sent to .10. I verified me HEX conversion, and I have 16e(1110) as the last two of the IP address. Can anyone shed some light on my problem?

Thanks in advance,
Nick

Does someone know how to change the format of the RBE to send TCP instead of UDP?

Elecnut33,

The H2-ECOM100 cannot send a regular TCP packet. The only TCP packet that he can send is Modbus TCP. Otherwise the RBE is sent using UDP/IP or IPX (depending on how you have your header configured). Also, the port used is 7070 hex or 28784 decimal.

Also, I sent you an e-mail response (finally!). Sorry such a delay in answering you!
