Hey guys, We recently acquired a station that is controlled by an Allen Bradley PLC and HMI. We want to keep the same system running the way it is but install a Redlion Graphite controller with web server to the PLC as well so the station can be ran by the AB HMI on site and the Graphite remotely. We have a G15 HMI laying around and have been trying to connect it to the PLC to see if we can get it to work. Once connected we will swap it out for a controller.
Here is the problem, I plugged the G15 into the same switch that the PLC and AB HMI are on and ran a network scan to verify that they are all showing up on the same network. I then imported the L5K file that is on the PLC and pulled all the tags related to tank level and dragged them onto the main display to see if i can get the same tank level that is on AB HMI. But I am only getting dashes.
I have inserted 3 snips of my screen to see if you guys can notice anything not looking right.
Thanks!
