Hi guys

I need some help setting up a pathe in a msg block for the L43 to a micrologix 1100

I have done this between a L32 and Micro with no problems (path: LocalEND,2,100.100.100.30) but I cant seem to come right with the L43

I got 2 Ethernet modules in the L43 both with diffrent addresses. My L43 will be reading from the first unit installed, slot 1 with IP 100.100.100.50 and the micro I use the onboard port IP 100.100.100.30

Is there anyone that can help me with this, I don't have that much experiance with MSG blocks.
 
Actually I'm not aware of differences between the L35E path through the local Ethernet/IP port and L43 path to go out from slot 1 Ethernet/IP port.

1,1 - will reach the local Ethernet/IP port (or slot 1 module in a 1768 system)
2 - will instruct the message to go out from that module's port
100.100.100.30 - will reach the MX1100 Ethernet/IP port

so: 1,1,2,100.100.100.30 it's a correct path for your message

If it still doesn't work, then I suggest to double check the other message settings (Source and Destination addresses, message type...) and IP addresses "compatibility" (subnet mask...) cables, switches and so on... the MSG instruction also contains an error information, post the error you got.

- fuzzy logic
