Overview of FINS Communications
Communications On an Ethernet Network
The EtherNet/IP Units and built-in EtherNet/IP ports support the FINS com-
munications service, which can be used simultaneously with the CIP commu-
nications service.
FINS communications data is sent and received as UDP/IP packets or TCP/IP
packets.
In the FINS communications service, both an IP address for IP (the Internet
layer) and a FINS node address for FINS (the application layer) are used for
the remote device. Also, 9600 is used as the default setting for the local UDP
or TCP port number (i.e., the transport layer) for identifying the application
layer, i.e., the FINS communications service. (Another number can be set for
the FINS/UDP port from the Setup Tab Page in the Unit Setup.)
For details on pairing FINS node addresses with IP addresses and UDP/TCP
port numbers, refer to 5-2 IP Addresses in FINS Communications.
The FINS communications service is a communications method based on
UDP/IP, and it is supported by most OMRON Ethernet-related products. (In
this manual it is called the FINS/UDP method.) In addition to supporting the
FINS/UDP method, the CJ2H-CPU@@-EIP, CJ2M-CPU3@, CS1W-EIP21,
and CJ1W-EIP21 support FINS communications using TCP/IP. (In this man-
ual, this is called the FINS/TCP method.)
