I have been asked at work to build a control for a new type of machine for a new product line.this is an R&D project.
I would like a recommendation on the best wat to communicate with an A/B 5/03 processor.
I have two pieces of equipment that uses 485 and would like to put them into this new system. we are also wanting to install a Maple touchscreen.
I am unfamiliar with setting up communication with other items.
Does the communication board if used go in the slot next to the processor or can it go anywhere?
I already have the allen bradley software and rslinx. The Maple software is on the way.I am running windows xp.
I appreciate all comments/help pro or con.
thanks,
Ricky
