Hi everyone,

I need to store at least a 200 recipes. I have a DeviceNet network connected to 1769 SDN's, using Micrologix LRP's.


Is there any way I could create a database on a PC and when commanded to, download/message a recipe to my host micro.

I would do this in the PLC but I do not have enough memory.

Could I do it using Rockwell software?

Yes, look at RsLinx for your connection to the PLC then you can write VB code to do it.

RsLinx Lite will not work. It must be Single Node, OEM, or Professional
