Hi. I am trying to get a Micrologix 1100 PLC to communicate with a SLC 505. My original plan was to send messages using the Ethernet port but the clients IT department are refusing to give me an IP address. So now my plan B is to send messages using the DF1 protocol on a serial link. First of all am I correct in assuming that it is possible to send messages using the DF1 protocol and is it straight forward to do? Also will the 1761-CBL-PM02 cable be suitable for connecting the two PLCs together? Any other solutions would be welcome (besides beating the IT department with a stick!!!!).
Thanks
Thanks
