Pyramid Solutions - NETSTAX™ EIPA

EtherNet/IP Adapter DLL Kit

NetStaX EtherNet/IP Adapter DLL Kit (EIPA) allows you to quickly introduce EtherNet/IP Adapter Class and CIP Security functionality into your PC-based products and systems. 

How it Works

Version 5.5.0 – Released January 31, 2025 –  Tested with ODVA CT21

The EIPA stack provides EtherNet/IP I/O Server, Message Server, and Message Client functionality (unconnected Explicit messaging only).

It also provides a logical and manageable Application Programming Interface (API) for developing Windows and .NET applications with the supplied 32 and 64 bit DLLs and .NET interface.

Since the EIPA stack is compatible with the standard Windows TCP/IP stack and standard PC/Laptop Ethernet NICs, you can get up and running quickly with no additional hardware or drivers required.

Pyramid Solution’s EIPA is distributed under a royalty free software license agreement.

The EIPA comes with 12 months of download access to the latest version and built in phone/email tech support.

Additional Services options are available to assist you with EtherNet/IP requirements, design, EIPA Stack integration, pre-conformance testing and more.
