I have a QBFC1B that has a remote ethernet IO rack on a private network. I would like to bring this PLC on a different network but keep the remote IO rack on its own dedicated network.
It appears I am pretty limited with this processor. It doesnt appear that there is an additional ethernet card that can be installed. I guess my only option would be to use a router or gateway to nat out the IP of the processor to the new network I want to put the PLC on.
Is it possible to use the QBFC1B as remote IO and control both it and the remote IO rack with a controllogix chassis? Like that I would be able to install 2 ethernet cards and separate the networks like I desire.
Has anyone been faced with this challenge with the QBFC1B?
