[snip] It could be a misprint, but Siemens would be morally obligated to let you return the SmartLinx card if it does not, in fact, function in a MultiRanger 100 when that model is listed on the catalog sheet. Legally obligated to let you return it? Who knows? Attachment sitransl_smartlinx_fi01_en.pdf (197 Downloads)

However, the SmartLink module instructions specifically state that it is NOT compatible. https://support.industry.siemens.com/cs/attachments/109756072/A5E43778525_EN_en-US.pdf?download=true Which is it? I'd like to order an Ethernet IP module if it is compatible. Thanks!

A Support Request might answer your question, but we users have no more insight that what's published publicly. The software compatability tables says Ethernet/IP is not for Mulit100/200: Attachment Smartlinx Compatibility from the manual 2018.JPG (205 Downloads)
