This Repository includes a TF6281 example for Explicit Messaging with CIP. There is an included TwinCAT PLC project, as well as a Allen-Bradley CompactLogix ADC file for Studio 5000 and a ODF file for Kepware Server.
NOTE: When using Kepware Server, the TF6281 can only connect to the "Unsolicited" driver; A.K.A Allen-Bradley ControlLogix Ethernet Server. Kepware does not support a "Generic" EthernetIP driver at this momnent. This unsolicited driver method also does not support structured datatypes on the Kepware side, however arrays work well.
