has someone configured a PLX31-EIP-MBTCP module?
when i add the AOP for it, it categorizes the data type as SINT instead of the INT data type like the 1769 in-chassis modbus cards.
my questions is, what is the cleanest way to read a floating value on it?
can i change the IO from SINT to INT? and treat it like an in-chassis modbus card?
or i use COP instruction to convert the whole SINT array to an INT and use the new INT array as the reference point like an in-chassis card?
or use COP instruction to the ones i really need - this sounds inconsistent when reading booleans, integers and Floats cause they'd be different lengths
