Title: Mach 4 LUA - Ethernet/IP Explicit Message
Post by: mcardoso on May 04, 2023, 09:53:49 AM
Hello,

I'm curious if anyone has any knowledge about or examples of using LUA scripting to message an industrial device via Ethernet/IP via explicit messaging.

I've done some scripting of RS232/RS485 ASCII serial read/write via LUA, however I'm interested in querying data from a servo drive on a periodic basis. This servo drive can respond to Ethernet/IP explicit messages, but I am not sure where to start in LUA to generate these communications.

Thanks in advance for any information you can provide.

Mike
