Copying a DeviceNet Object

Hi all,

I'm new to DeviceNet and would like to ask this community if they could possibly answer my question. At work, we have a pneumatic block that we use to control actuators. This block has an electronic section that is controlled by DeviceNet, the problem is the control circuity is obsolete and we cannot purchase another unit. Is there a way that I can copy the object/code that is in the device and provide a substitute component in its place?

I was told by a Rockwell Automation Engineer that this is not possible, but is there any way that I can look at the message traffic to/from the device and program another device to mimic what this device is doing?

Any help or insight on this problem would be greatly appreciated!
