Adept Viper s650 with eMB-60R does not communicate with Logix 5000

    Hello everyone,

    I have a robot Adept Viper s650 controlled via PLC CompactLogix 5000, version 19.11, using a SmartController CX with ePLC 1.0 to send the commands from PLC to power module eMB-60R, over FireWire communication.

    I intend to remove the Smart Controller CX from my system and use the eMB-60R power module connected via Ethernet/IP directly with the PLC, because the power module already has the ePLC integrated.

    I followed exactly the steps according to the manual Adept ePLC User Guide for RSLogix 5000. However, the module does not communicate with the PLC.

    The module appears on the RSLinx Classic network, with the correct IP. But after I add the Generic Ethernet module in the PLC, it only fails "Module Fault Code 16#0118 Module Configuration Reject: Format Error"

    As I mentioned, I did the configuration exactly as the User Guide asks.

    Can someone help me?

    Thanks in advance !
