Byte Swap Configuration

Byte Swap Configuration

Configure a byte swap in the Ethernet/IP protocol to toggle byte order and ensure the connected PLC correctly interprets string data.
The default setting maintains the camera's native byte order (no swap), ensuring backward compatibility.
In Aurora Focus, the Industrial Ethernet boolean fields have a fixed size of 1 byte. This can cause misalignment of received data on the PLC side when a boolean field follows a float or an integer field, both of which are 4 bytes in length. In order to avoid misalignment of data, boolean fields should be added as the last field in the Industrial Ethernet data configuration.
  1. Configure the PLC Protocol by selecting Ethernet/IP or Modbus TCP in Device Settings.
    A manual reboot is required for PLC protocol changes to take effect.
