CompactLogix is the specific [Allen-Bradley](/library/protocols/ethernetip/AllenBradley) PLC family [`EtherNetIPDevice`](/library/protocols/ethernetip) has been hardware-tested against (CompactLogix 5332E 1769-L32E), not a separate driver class.

with EtherNetIPDevice(config="compactlogix.json", autostart=True) as plc:
    plc.add_publisher(NominalCorePublisher(dataset_rid=RID))
    time.sleep(10)
```
