EtherNet/IP Adapter Software
The EtherNet/IP Adapter Software enables developers of PC based or embedded products to quickly add EtherNet/IP Adapter Class functionality to a product's feature set.
Applications for the EtherNet/IP Adapter Software involve EtherNet/IP-capable devices like I/O-Modules, encoders, valves, simple drives and other components used in factory automation.
The EtherNet/IP Adapter Software provides I/O Server and Message Server capability as well as an Application Programming Interface (API) for the application.
The EtherNet/IP Adapter Software is delivered as complete source code - EtherNet/IP Adapter Developers Kit (EADK) or as DLL for Microsoft Windows XP/2000/NT - EtherNet/IP Adapter Communication Driver (EIPA).
The EtherNet/IP Adapter Software is offered as royalty-free site license.

Supported Target Systems
The EtherNet/IP Software is delivered for Microsoft Windows XP/2000/NT and Microsoft Visual Studio and is already running on this system with the demo application.
An adaptation to other systems is possible using the EtherNet/IP Adapter Developer's Kit (EADK) which is delivered completely in source code.
This adaptation can also be done by IXXAT.
A suitable operating system as well as TCP/IP protocol stack must be already available for the target system, as they are not part of the delivery content for the EtherNet/IP Adapter Software.
