About the Adapter        1-5

The 1734-AENT adapter and the applications described in this manual 
are compatible with the following firmware revisions and software 
releases. Contact Rockwell Automation if you need software or 
firmware upgrades to use this equipment.

The 1734-AENT adapter performs the following primary tasks:

• Control of real-time I/O data (also known as implicit messaging) 

- the 1734-AENT adapter serves as a bridge between POINT I/O 
modules and the network

• Support of messaging data for configuration and programming 

information (also known as explicit messaging)

The 1734-AENT adapter uses the Common Industrial Protocol (CIP). 
CIP is the application layer protocol specified for EtherNet/IP, the 
Ethernet Industrial Protocol, as well as for ControlNet and DeviceNet 
networks. It is a message-based protocol that implements a relative 
path to send a message from the producing device in a system to the 
consuming devices.

The producing device contains the path information that steers the 
message along the proper route to reach its consumers. Since the 
producing device holds this information, other devices along the path 
simply pass this information; they do not need to store it.
