Hello;
I've got a Compact Logix L35E CPU, Id like to send and retrieve information from some Parker 690+ drives.
The Parker drives offer ASCII or Modbus RTU on RS485
Both devices support ASCII but I don't have the time to learn and troubleshoot the instructions from ladderlogic.
I would feel more comfortable using the modbus protocol.
I've narrowed down the modbus translator to either a redlion Datastation or a Prosoft MV169
They're similar on price,
Can anyone make any suggestions on previous experience, ease of use, setup, troubleshooting, etc..
Kind Regards,
UKB
