Issue
The example in Unity Help "EtherNet/IP Explicit Message Example: Read Register Request" does not return the data I expected.
Product Line
UnityPro, Control Expert V14.0
Environment
Windows OS
Resolution
The example, as it is written contains an error. If the Address for the ADDM function is used as written the block will return the internal diagnostics of the target device. It will use 255 as the unit ID which is the reason for the incorrect data. The string reads '0.1.0{192.168.1.7}TCP.MBS'. It should be '0.1.0{192.168.1.7}1.TCP.MBS'.
