Hello all,
I'm wondering who's done Modbus TCP right out of the Ethernet port on a Compactlogix? Was it a pain? I downloaded their sample code and what a bloody mess! I usually just use a Red Lion G series operator interface and set up a gateway block to move data between the 2 systems. Drag and drop-pretty simple. I wanted to use a high bright AB Panelview on this job since it's outside and that would mean no Red Lion to do the data transfer. Suggestions or opinions?
