IndraControl S67 - NI Tools - Rexroth Open Core Engineering driver

I am trying to understand the application scope of Rexroth Open Core Engineering LabVIEW Add-on available on the NI Tools Network,

 

the https://www.ni.com/en/support/downloads/tools-network/download.open-core-interface-toolkit.html

 

I have an S67 unit, Fieldbus Coupler utilizing Ethernet/IP - the S67-ET-BK-DI8-M8

 

It is unclear from the documentation if full control and configuration of this device is supported in the LabVIEW MLPI4 toolkit from Rexroth.

 

Anyone have any experience?  I don't have the hardware to test unfortunately.  I have contacted Tammon (he has posted about the Open Core Engineering package before on the forum.

 

Just hoping to hear from anyone with experience integrating with these units in LabVIEW.


Thanks.

Hello,

 

Because this is a question about the specifics of a third-party driver, we do not officially support the usage of it. This is stated on the product's page overview.

 

However, they do have a forum that can specifically help you out with using this driver in LabVIEW. Hopefully they can get you a good answer to this.

 

Below comes from the product page.

 

Support Information
This product is supported by the third-party provider and not by NI. For more information, contact Bosch Rexroth at:

I wasn't actually expecting an NI support response - The Rexroth Rep responded - they do not have a driver at the IndraControl level yet.
