Great topic! I enjoyed the discussion and comparison. I routinely use Modbus/TCP for VFD control, but would rather use Ethernet/IP, having used it on a few other brands. Is Ethernet/IP IO going to be fully implemented in future releases? I understand the Horner product currently is only able to be a server, not a master.
Hi Gene, We definitely want to add Ethernet/IP Scanner capabilities in the future, but it's probably not going to happen this year. We'll keep you up to date if that changes.

So what is different between ethernet and data highway?
