Not for programming purposes though...
I need to get a heartbeat signal from a SLC 5/05 to monitor/track machine downtime on a PC. I was originally going to use RS232 to send strings and catch them with my VB program ( MSComm OnComm event ), but that idea is out the door as there's an RS232 PanelView hooked up.
So I need to somehow get the heartbeat over the ethernet port...
What is the easiest way of doing this?
Thanks in advance!
