Advancing EtherNet/IP In-Cabinet with Functional Safety, Standards and Ecosystem Expansion
Technical Paper Abstract EtherNet/IPTM In-Cabinet has introduced an innovative approach for connecting industrial control components by replacing traditional point-to-point hardwiring with a shared Single Pair Ethernet (SPE) communication medium. The technology enables direct EtherNet/IP connectivity to low-cost industrial devices such as pushbuttons, contactors, motor starters, and signaling devices, while reducing wiring complexity, engineering effort, testing… Continue reading
Read MoreMode-Aware Object-Level Security for EtherNet/IP Devices Using CIP Security in Industrial Network
Technical Paper Abstract Securing EtherNet/IP endpoints cannot rely only on perimeter controls. Firewalls, segmentation, VPNs, and (D)TLS protect communication channels, but they do not by themselves decide whether a specific CIP object, service, or operational command is authorized for a given requester in the device’s current state or mode. This paper proposes a fail-closed, post-(D)TLS… Continue reading
Read MoreEvaluating the Coverage of Diverse CIP Safety Mechanisms & Its Integration in Highly Dynamic Industrial Environments
Technical Paper Abstract The emergence of Industry 4.0 has accelerated the adoption of reconfigurable and software-defined manufacturing systems. These systems rely increasingly on programmable controllers, distributed input/output devices, industrial Ethernet networks, and dynamically integrated safety functions. Functional safety communication profiles such as CIP Safety apply the black-channel principle defined in IEC 61784-3 [2]. Under this… Continue reading
Read MoreEtherNet/IP and Margo™: Complementary Layers for Industrial Edge Interoperability
Technical Paper Abstract Industrial plants increasingly host compute devices and software applications from many suppliers. Deploying, updating and observing those workloads across sites has become a lifecycle-management problem that existing field-device communication standards were never intended to solve. Margo™, an open collaboration hosted by the Linux Foundation, addresses that problem through an open standard, a… Continue reading
Read MoreSecure Deployment of Industrial Communication Protocols: A Risk Management Based Approach
Technical Paper Abstract Industrial communication protocols are a foundational element of modern process and factory automation, enabling interoperability, real-time control, and efficient device integration. However, many widely deployed protocols were not originally designed with cybersecurity as a primary objective. Although standards development organizations have been steadily adding security functionality to these protocols, there are still… Continue reading
Read MoreA Framework for Functional Safety in Process Applications using EtherNet/IP
Technical Paper Abstract Since the decision by NAMUR to specify two network protocols for Ethernet-based applications in the process industries, ODVA has developed specification enhancements to align with the needs of these applications, covering Device Management, Profiles, aspects related to the Physical Layer, Security and Functional Safety. This paper aims to address this last item:… Continue reading
Read MoreThe New Ethernet Interface for EtherNet/IP
Technical Paper Abstract This article introduces a compact, robust connector generically referred to as the ix, a next-generation miniaturized Ethernet connector system standardized under IEC 61076-3-124, engineered to replace RJ45 in industrial automation environments. At roughly one-quarter the volume of RJ45, the ix gives design engineers the dimensional headroom to integrate Ethernet connectivity into space-constrained assemblies… Continue reading
Read MoreRe‑examining Non‑Interference Requirements in CIP Safety Devices for Closed Communication Systems
Technical Paper Abstract CIP Safety is based on the Black Channel concept defined in IEC 61784‑3, where the communication path is treated as unknown and potentially faulty, and safety integrity is achieved through end‑to‑end mechanisms in the Safety Communication Layer (SCL). These mechanisms provide a SIL 3 compatible residual error rate independent of the underlying network and… Continue reading
Read MoreUnified Device Integration Architecture for EtherNet/IP: Stateless, Event-Driven Configuration and Control (Paper 13)
Technical Paper Abstract EtherNet/IP devices are becoming more complex, and the associated device configuration in modern automation systems must balance rich, device-specific behavior with cloud-scale deployment, interoperability, and predictable host integration. The paper will describe an approach that combines stateless business logic, schema-versioned APIs to address this challenge. In this model, device vendor-supplied applications remain… Continue reading
Read MoreOpening CIP: An OpenAPI for Describing CIP-Enabled Products
Technical Paper Abstract The Common Industrial Protocol (CIP) is widely used in industrial automation to enable interoperable communication between controller and field devices from multiple vendors. As the number and diversity of CIP-enabled products continue to grow, the need for standardized, machine-readable mechanisms to describe device capabilities, characteristics, and related metadata has become increasingly important….

Technical Paper Abstract EZ-EDS has long served as a key tool for creating, editing, and validating EDS files within industrial communication ecosystems. As device description technologies evolve, the requirement for additional mandatory requirements present both opportunities and challenges for tools that support EDS development workflows. To remain effective, EZ-EDS must adapt to these changes while… Continue reading
Read MoreStandardized PLC to Robot Integration Using SRCI over EtherNet/IP via CIP Technologies
Technical Paper Abstract As industrial robotics adoption accelerates, the need for standardized, vendor neutral integration between Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs) and robot controllers has become increasingly critical. While the Standard Robot Controller Interface (SRCI) specification [2] defines a comprehensive, PLC centric command and state model for robotic systems, it does not prescribe a Common Industrial… Continue reading

Technical Paper Abstract Recent enhancements to The CIP Networks Library Volume 1 modify requirements for device Electronic Data Sheets (EDS) and for the first time introduce requirements for applications that interpret them. The specification has historically left many features optional to promote EtherNet/IP adoption. In some cases, this led to interoperability issues. In others it… Continue reading

Technical Paper Abstract The transition of industrial automation toward Industry 4.0, autonomous mobile robots (AMRs), and flexible manufacturing requires robust wireless communication, such as Wi-Fi 6 and 5G. Traditional industrial Ethernet protocols were designed for wired, deterministic environments, and adapting them to wireless media introduces significant architectural challenges. This paper argues that EtherNet/IP™ demonstrates clear… Continue reading
