Hello Everyone,
I was asked to help an Engineer with a project his is currently designing, and just wasnted to double check that my idea would work correctly.
We are looking at having 4 individual machines, each with a MicroLogix 1400 with ethernet all hooked up to a Master PLC which will also control some robots.
It's possible to connect all the PLCs into an ethernet network and send data via the "MSG" commands correct?
Unless I'm missing something all that's needed is some ethernet cable and a router. (setting the proper IP addresses of course)
I just want to double check everything, the manual says:
"You can connect directly a MicroLogix 1400 to an Ethernet network via the Ethernet port (Channel 1"
Thanks,
Shawn
