My Situation. I have an Rockwell SE project reading tags from a Contrologix 5000 PLC. What I need to do is be able to add tags to this SE project from another SLC5/04 PLC. Here is my configuration.
CLX 5000 is in Slot 0
DHRIO Module is in Slot 4
DHRIO Channel A is connected to the SLC5/04 (Node 1)
In RSLinx I can drill to the SLC5/04 in the CLX slot CH A and data monitor the SLC Tags.
The DHRIO module is in the CLX Tree but faulted as expected for connection requested. I realize I dont need it there.
There are a lot of Tags in the SLC5/04 that I need in the SE project. Thousands.
I think there are 2 ways of doing this but am not sure how to proceed. Am thinking I could install RSLinx on the SE box and create a data server in the SE project but not sure how to go about that?
Or maybe I can message the tages from the SLC to the CLX but not sure how I can get thousands of different tags messaged?
Any direction would be appreciated.
Thanks Bob
