Embedded System Research

The document discusses two industrial communication protocols: Ethernet Global Data (EGD) which provides sharing of information across applications regardless of device or network type, and Factory Interface Network Service Protocol (FINS) which is used by Omron PLCs to provide consistent communication between PLCs and computers on networks.

Ethernet Global Data (EGD)

The GE Ethernet Global Data (EGD) Driver provides an easy and reliable way to
connect GE Ethernet Global Data (EGD) devices to OPC Client applications,
including HMI, SCADA, Historian, MES, ERP and countless custom applications.
Ethernet Global Data (EGD) offers versatility where a mix of control devices requires
cooperation with each other. This involves sharing of information across the
applications regardless of device or network type, often at high speed, and with high
reliability. High reliability means fewer communication failures and having the ability
to detect failures upon occurrence. Particular emphasis is delivered for applications
requiring periodic or frequent updates and time synchronization of devices. The
protocol supports Unicast, Broadcast and Multicast group messaging. Efficiency is
based on the fact each device on the network can produce these types of messages
and each device determines which of these messages to consume. The Ethernet
Global Data (EGD) module can be used to interface many different protocols with
EGD devices. The EGD driver supports both the producer/consumer service port
(18246) and the command service port (7937) using the UDP protocol over an IP
network. The user defines the data to be produced and consumed in a configuration
file downloaded to the module.

Factory Interface Network Service Protocol (FINS)

Factory Interface Network Service Protocol (FINS) over TCP is running at this host.
Factory Interface Network Service, is a network protocol used by Omron PLCs. The
FINS communications service was developed by Omron to provide a consistent way
for PLCs and computers on various networks to communicate.
