Resolution
PM55xx meters does support EtherNet/IP communication protocol starting with Firmware 2.5.2 that was released on Feb 2018. Meters with older version of firmware need to be upgraded to version 2.5.2 to support Ethernet/IP protocol.

PM55xx Firmware Version 2.5.2 can be downloaded from here

EtherNet/IP features overview:
The CIP (Common Industrial Protocol) application layer defines a set of application objects and device profiles that define common interfaces and behaviors. In addition, CIP communication services enable end-to-end communication between devices on the different CIP networks. EtherNet/IP maps the CIP communication services to Ethernet and TCP/IP, enabling multi-vendor interoperability between devices on Ethernet as well as with the other CIP networks.

EtherNet/IP defines two primary types of communications:
•    Cyclical Exchanges (Implicit Exchanges)
•    Messaging (Explicit Exchanges)

EtherNet/IP is enabled by default on firmware v2.5.2. This feature can be enabled/disabled by navigating to the EtherNet/IP settings available through the meter’s display under Maint > Setup > Comm, or via the relevant section in the meter’s web-page interface.

For more details on the EtherNet/IP features in PM5500 Series, please refer to the PM5500 Series User Guide version 05 or later.
