Hey guys,

This is my first time posting. I'm currently working on a project for work that im not sure if its even possible to do. What im trying to is for the HMI and Powerflex drive to communicate with the micrologix 1200 over Modbus. I done a similar project a few months ago but I used a micrologix 1400. These is what im using now:

1762-L40BWA--- (1 port) ML1200
Powerflex 40
2711r-T7T--- HMI
1761-NET-AIC


Can anyone tell me if this is possible to do with the items I listed?

Thanks
Jose
 
Using RSLogix 500 to check on this, it looks like if you have a Series C Micrologix 1200, you can configure Channel 0 for Modbus Master. It appears the Series B only supports Modbus Slave on that channel. I did not both to check the Series A.
