I have a large process running. 4 ControlLogix Processors, multiple remote I/O Racks, 3 or 4 devicenet bridges, all communicating through ControlNET.
We have a subscription to AB's Direct Connect service, and get software upgrades as they come out. Right now everything is running on RSLogix ver 12. We have ver 15, but didn't find it necessary to upgrade everything.
Is there any real benifit to upgrading to ver 15, or should we just use the "If it ain't broke, don't fix it" approach? I've read that the newest CNB Modules (Series E I think) don't accept version 12. If anything bad happened to one of our CNB Modules, would we be forced to upgrade?
Just looking for thoughts.
