Folks,

We have an older system that was migrated from an SLC to a ControlLogix processor. With this upgrade we also switch, not surprisingly, from an SST SLC Master to a SST CLX Master. All of our devices on this network are old APV Delta CU2 modules...as well as a few Delta CU3 modules masquerading as CU2s. We used to have a piece of software from APV named Valve-Net Toolbox. This software is no longer functional. I've been unable to find any replacement for this software. Does anyone have any good suggestions? The connection was straight into a repeater, I'd love to find something that will allow access to the valve information via the PFB-CLX card in the PLC. I'm also failing miserably when it comes to more information available from the CU2 units. I'd be happy if I could query the information from the device with the PLC. I'm just not finding any information on these units whatsoever.

Thanks for any and all help,
Richard
