EtherNet/IP Interface 5 - 15
EA3600 I/O Tags
When the EA3600 is added to the I/O configuration, a set of tags is created to allow the PLC logic to read and write
data to the EA3600 through the I/O connection. The set of tags created when using the AOP are specifically named
according to the EA3600 PLC I/O reference (see Chapter 2, Ethernet Interface). This is a more convenient method
for interfacing with the EA3600 as you do not have to be concerned with figuring out the function of each byte, bit,
or word within the I/O structure.

Transferring Barcode Data from the EA3600
The EtherNet/IP interface supports all three transfer modes for transferring barcode data from the EA3600 to the
controller.
See Reading Barcode Data from the EA3600 on page 3-2 for details on the barcode transfer mechanisms.
