Here's the basic system in question:
WAGO Modules, in physical order;
750-352/020 : ECO Field Bus Coupler
750-530 : 8 Channel Digital Output
750-530 : 8 Channel Digital Output
750-602 : Power Bus
750-530 : 8 Channel Digital Output
750-530 : 8 Channel Digital Output
750-602 : Power Bus
750-530 : 8 Channel Digital Output
750-530 : 8 Channel Digital Output
750-602 : Power Bus
750-600 : End Module
These are connected to a Horner, QX451 touchscreen PLC via Ethernet MODBUS TCP/IP.
This is a completed working system at this time. Everything is configured, and functional, with the existing modules mentioned above - the coupler has an IP address assigned, etc.
I need to add two new 750-554, Analog Output modules.
My questioning is as follows...
Do I need any special software to set up the WAGO modules, or can I just tack them to the end of the other modules, (before the End Module)?
Then, can I just assign tags in programming for the new WAGO I/O process image based upon the location of the new modules?
Will the addition of the new modules change the address locations of the existing modules' points?
I have not yet worked with WAGO equipment, so any help is appreciated.
Thanks.
