I just started doing some programming for a company that has usually used 1 AB 505 and 1 Panelview per machine. However, there is a project that they did that has 4 AB 505s and 4 Panelviews connected with ethernet. The programmer before me set up a write MSG Block to each plc. This just seems like a crude way to do this and it is very hard to keep the addresses straight, but it does work. The company is adding equipment and will need a lot of extra programming, with data send to all 4 PLCs. I have 2 free spaces in each rack. The max distance between the PLCs is 100'.Any help on the proper way to do this would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Jim
