6 Communication
After the RMC has successfully received and processed this write request, it will respond
with the following packet:
E0 00
Notice that the last byte is the response code, with 00 meaning success.
Example 2: Reading a Single Register
In this example, the client will read a value from variable 0 (%MD56.0). Therefore, the
Register File is 56, and the Register Element is 0. Supposing that variable 0 held the
value 0x11223344, then the following packets would be sent between the controllers:
6.8.10.5. DMCP
The Delta Motion Control Protocol (DMCP) is a simple Ethernet protocol intended for use with
direct communication to the RMC75E and RMC150E over TCP or UDP. In applications where
none of the RMC’s other protocols are supported by the master controller, but direct
communication over TCP or UDP is allowed, Delta recommends that the DMCP protocol be
implemented by the user manually.
DMCP requires firmware version 3.31.0 or newer.
For details on implementing DMCP, see Communicating Directly over TCP or Communicating
Directly over UDP.
Tip: An example implementation of DMCP in the C programming language is available in the
of Delta'
6.8.10.6. EtherNet/IP
6.8.10.6.1. EtherNet/IP (CIP)
EtherNet/IP is an open application protocol, maintained and distributed by ODVA
(http://www.odva.org). EtherNet/IP is used by Ethernet modules for several PLC's including
Allen Bradley, Schneider Electric, and Omron. EtherNet/IP is an Ethernet adaptation of the
Control Information Protocol (CIP) in the same way that DeviceNet is a CAN adaptation of CIP
and ControlNet is a CTDMA adaptation of CIP.
The RMC is a passive EtherNet/IP device. It does not establish its own I/O connections, nor
does it initiate messaging transactions. Therefore, an active EtherNet/IP device or client is
required to control the RMC or request data from the RMC.
The RMC75E and RMC150E statements of conformance and EDS files are available for
download from the Delta website at www.deltamotion.com.
The RMC75E and RMC150E support EtherNet/IP Messaging and EtherNet/IP I/O.
