Hello Experts,
I would like to ask a general question and just wondering if someone can help me to explain it.
So I have a AB Compact logix processor on my main control panel and I am talking with another AB PLC installed in CNC machine.
I have 1 DINT produced and consumed tag between two PLC and using each bit of my DINT.
My question is, will I use 32 CIP connection if I use all bits of my DINT? or 1 CIP connection for per tag (SINT, DINT, BOOL)
how about if I use 1 DINT of an array with 32 elements which will give me 32 X 32 = 1024 bits to transfer the data and just wondering how many CIP connection I will use in that situation.
Will I use 1 CIP connection for each elements (32 bits) or 32 connection for each elements of my produced/consumed array.
Thank you in advance for the help,
TGIF
