There is some discussion on another thread about using Ethernet for EMC
I/O. I can see that there is the appeal of plentiful and cheap hardware
available with Ethernet, but there seems to be a fair amount of hacking
needed to make it work. For my education, why not use a communication
standard designed, from the start, for machine control? Can Ethernet
overcome it drawbacks to become a full-fledged method for machine
control communication?
