Example - Rockwell Studio 5000 Logix Designer ®

This section gives an example of a simple integration of EYE+ with the EtherNet/IP module in Rockwell Studio 5000 Logix Designer ® version 31.00.00.

Prerequisites

Before you start, please make sure you have downloaded the following files:

EYE+ EtherNet/IP EDS file (electronic datasheet)
Studio 5000 Logix Designer ® sample code

These files can be downloaded from EtherNet/IP Downloads.

Once you have downloaded the necessary files, launch the EDS Hardware Installation Tool.

../../../_images/EDS_installation.png — Fig. 220 Launch EDS Hardware Installation Tool

The Rockwell Automation’s EDS Wizard opens. Click on “Next”.

../../../_images/EDS_wizard.png — Fig. 221 Rockwell Automation’s EDS Wizard

Select “Register an EDS file” and click on “Next”.

../../../_images/EDS_register.png — Fig. 222 Register an EDS file

Select the EYE+ EDS file you downloaded from EtherNet/IP Downloads.

../../../_images/EDS_asyril_eyeplus.png — Fig. 223 Register EYE+ EDS

Click on “Next” 4 times to finalize the EYE+ EDS registration.

Basic integration

Once the EYE+ EDS is registered, add a new EYE+ module to your I/O Configuration by right-clicking on your Ethernet board.

../../../_images/new_module.png — Fig. 224 Add a new module

Select EYE+ and press “Create”.

../../../_images/select_eyeplus_module.png — Fig. 225 Create EYE+ EtherNet/IP module

In order for our Logix 5000 sample code to work out of the box, set the module name to EyePlus. Configure the IP settings. The default IP Address of the EYE+ Ethernet/IP module is 192.168.210.10. If you would like to change this address, please refer to the Module configuration section.

../../../_images/create_eyeplus_module.png — Fig. 226 Configure Name and IP Address

You should now see the EYE+ IOs in your controller tags. When you go online, the tag EyePlus:I.System_State should be 128, corresponding to the Ready state.

Create a new task, select it and import a component.

../../../_images/import_component.png — Fig. 228 Import a component

Choose the Logix sample code.

../../../_images/import_sample_code.png — Fig. 229 Open Logix 5000 sample code

Validate the import configuration by clicking OK.

../../../_images/import_configuration.png — Fig. 230 Import Configuration

The following ladder diagram should now have been imported in your task. You can start the production of a recipe that was previously created on your EYE+ controller by setting udRecipeID to the ID of that recipe, then setting boStart to True. The coordinates of the part found will be returned in reRobotTargetX, reRobotTargetY and reRobotTargetRz.
