Getting invalid tag in Ethernet/IP protocol

[rahul484]

Trying to connect to Allen's Bradley plc device using Ethernet IP protocol. Test connection is successful, however, I am unable to read it after passing the tag.

I am using edit inline to add the tag with the name 'hello' as below:
Alias: Test
Address: %hello

I tried without % also in the address, however, it's throwing error: invalid tag.

According to PLC4X documentation the address format should be:

%{tagname}[{startIndex}]:{numberOfElements}
%{tagname}[{startIndex}]:{numberOfElements}:{DataType}

The regex in the Ethernet IP protocol sourcecode states:

private static final Pattern ADDRESS_PATTERN =
        Pattern.compile("^%(?<tag>[a-zA-Z_.0-9]+\\[?[0-9]*\\]?):?(?<dataType>[A-Z]*):?(?<elementNb>[0-9]*)");

Looks like your tag is valid, but maybe the PLC device you are connecting to has additional requirements concerning the address.

Maybe the PLC4x documentation is not up to date. See: PLC4X issue 1481
