Can the Modicon M221 PLC communicate via Ethernet/IP protocol?

Issue
Can the Modicon M221 PLC communicate via Ethernet/IP protocol?

Product Line
Modicon M221 PLC, EcoStruxure Machine Expert Basic

Environment
PLC Communication protocol

Resolution
Yes. The Modicon M221 can be configured as an Ethernet/IP Server on any M221 that supports Ethernet.

Steps:
1) Go to the Configuration Tab
2) Under MyController -> "ETH1" selection, tick the checkbox next to "EtherNet/IP protocol enabled"

3) Click Apply
4) Choose Yes when prompted "Do you want to apply the changes?"
5) In the left menu bar, navigate to the node MyController -> ETH1 -> EtherNet/IP adapter
6) Under the EtherNet/IP Adapter -> Parameters, tick the checkbox next to Enabled

8) Here, you can assign the number of WORDs you wish to exchange through the Input and Output Assembly as well as the individual Assembly instance ID.
The maximum WORDs per assembly is 20.
The M221 is a Server, so it will respond to Read

9) Click Apply to accept these settings.
10) Go to the Programming Tab.
11) Expand Network objects -> Input assembly (EtherNet/IP)

Programming Tab -> Network objects -> Input assembly

The Addresses in the PLC for Input Assembly WORDs are %QWE0 to %QWE19

You may map a Symbol name to each WORD for programming context.

12) Expand Network objects -> Output assembly (EtherNet/IP)

Programming Tab -> Network objects -> Output assembly

Similarly, the Addresses in the PLC for Output Assembly WORDs are %IWE0 to %IWE19

Result:

You have now created the memory objects in the M221 PLC to act as an EtherNet/IP Server.
The Input Assembly WORDs (read-only registers) in the M221 PLC may be read from an external EtherNet/IP Client.
The Output Assembly WORDs (write-only registers) in the M221 PLC may be written to from an external EtherNet/IP Client.

NOTE: The M221 cannot be configured to be an EIP Client on the network and send EIP Class 3 messages.
