Introduction
All Maple Systems HMIs programmed with EBPro (EasyBuilder Pro), including every cMT X Series and cMT Series model, are compatible with KUKA EtherNet/IP (Implicit Messaging). Configure your Controller and HMI/cMT with the following parameters to establish reliable communication.
Supported Series: KR C4 COMPACT, KR C4 smallsize-2, KR C5

Assembly Instance Notes
Input: Set the device to read back the instance number of the input buffer under Assembly (0x04).
Output: Set the device to write the instance number of the output buffer under Assembly (0x04).
Size — Input: Set the device to read back the buffer size of the input buffer under Assembly (0x04).
Size — Output: Set the buffer size that the device writes to the output buffer under Assembly (0x04).
Device Address
| Bit/Word | Device Type | Format | Range | Memo |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| B | Input_8Bit | DDDo | 0 ~ 5117 | |
| B | Output_8Bit | DDDo | 0 ~ 5117 | |
| W | Input | DDD | 0 ~ 255 | Word address |
| W | Input_Overflow | DDD | 0 ~ 511 | Byte address |
| Byte | Input_Byte | DDD | 0 ~ 511 | Byte address |
| W | Output | DDD | 0 ~ 255 | Word address |
| W | Output_Overflow | DDD | 0 ~ 511 | Byte address |
| Byte | Output_Byte | DDD | 0 ~ 511 | Byte address |
NOTE: Assume that the output will access the memory raw data = [00 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09]
Output 0→ makeword[00 01]= 1Output 1→ makeword[02 03]= 515Output 2→ makeword[04 05]= 1029Output_overflow 0→ makeword[00 01]= 1Output_overflow 1→ makeword[01 02]= 258Output_overflow 2→ makeword[02 03]= 515
