Patrick,
Unfortunately, the NX100 is limited in its communication abilities. As Eric mentioned, you have to use the Data Transmission function. Another option is to use the MotoCom32 library. This is a Win32 SDK (with examples and docs) that wraps around the DataTransmission function and exposes some higher-level API calls. However, each runtime copy requires a license and hardware dongle. If you implement the protocol directly, it does not require a runtime license.
The only other option is the RS232 serial interface. However, this is even slower than the ethernet commands and gives you less functionality.
If you need ROS for your controller, I would recommend upgrading to an FS100 controller (or DX100).
