Setting up Red Lion Data Statin Plus

Can any one please send me some details of the way to set up "Data Station Plus" unit with Crimson 3 sftware. I am trying to make 2 different type of PLCs to share data detween them. One is Allen Bradley Compact Logix, the other is Modicon Quantum 113 03. I also like to know the wire connection between the two PLCs to the red lion unit.

Hello,

The AB PLC would use the Allen Bradley Native Tags via L5K driver. The Modicon would use Modbus Master or Slave driver depending on how the Modicon is configured. Once these are configured you can create a gateway block on the Modbus device and this will allow you to share data between the two devices. Below is a link to a video on protocol conversion.
