I'm looking for some information on how to use RS232 communication. I'm designing an automated hoist system using sevo motors and will be using a SLC 5/03 and a Panelview 1000. The design currently uses AB encoders and a HSCE2 counter module and dc motors. I want to replace the DC motors with servo motors. The servo motors can communicate with either 7 discrete inputs or outputs or communicate by RS232. My question is, how to do this using RS232? Where is the information from the servo sent to in the plc. How do I give the servo instructions from the plc. Any direction you can give me would be a big help.
