Connect Red Lion/Fuji HMI to PLC-5 over Ethernet through ENI module?

I'm writing a driver for Turck Programmable gateways to be able to communicate with Allen Bradley Processors using various DF1 over Ethernet protocols. I have an ENI module so I can talk to my AB PLC's through ethernet, and have successfully written them for the SLC and MLX, however when I try it for the PLC5 it pukes. I'm using a Red Lion G310 as my template, and I can't get that to transfer data either. I have a PLC 5/20 and a PLC 5/20C...has anybody done this?

1	The NET-ENI modules were designed to work with SLC 500, Micrologix and CompactLogix controllers not the PLC5. For a PLC5 you would need a ethernet controller or a PLC5 Ethernet Module (1785-ENET). link answered Mar 23 '10 at 16:16 Joe A 91●4
