Video: Modicon M580 CPU – EtherNet/IP Local Slave Mode
The “Local Slave” function in the Modicon M580 allows the CPU to behave as an EtherNet/IP adapter (target device), enabling other controllers (scanners) to read and write data from/to the M580.
The following video demonstrates this functionality:
