Found this document on the HMS Anybus Webiste- it talks about the instance/ structure sizes for an ethernet/ip scanner. Is this what you need?

https://www.anybus.com/docs/librariesprovider7/default-document-library/manuals-design-guides/hms-hmsi-27-249.pdf?sfvrsn=1b73aad6_16

You may be able to find a tag structure or UDT also on that page that you can load into your Taglist.

 

Regards

Daniel.

Thanks, but what i'm looking for is the Allen Bradley 1794-AENT assembly instances. I'm looking for its data, data rate and connection points.

I googled "1794-aent generic module" and found this:

https://www.hilscher.com/fileadmin/cms_upload/ko/Resources/pdf/EtherNetIP_Generic_Adapter_DTM_OI_08_EN.pdf

It appears to have some of the parameters you're looking for, but they may not be useful to you. Realize that the configuration you're trying to do will be very dependent on which modules are attached to the -AENT and this may not work at all.

Are you trying to control a Flex I/O chassis with a PLC that doesn't support it? If so, it may be a better investment of time/effort to use different I/O that the PLC supports or change to a PLC that supports that I/O chassis.
