We have a SLC 5/04 that we would like to be able to connect to via Ethernet. The main goal is to use VPN to remotely monitor the PLC.
Rack Configuration (1746-A10)
0: 1747-L542C (SLC 5/04)
1: 1747-SDN (DeviceNet Scanner)
2: 1746-IA16 (16-Input)
3: 1746-IA16 (16-Input)
4: 1746-IA16 (16-Input)
5: 1746-OA16 (16-Output)
6: 1746-NI4 (Analog 4-Input)
7: 1746-NO4V (Analog 4-Output)
Controller Communications:
Driver: AB_KT-1
Route: Local
Processor Node: 1
This is communicating to a Pentium III Computer with a 1784-PKTX (DH+) card installed. This computer is running Wonderware.
We have considered the following options:
1. Use a 1761-NET-ENI
2. Upgrade to a SLC 5/05 - Can we still communicate to the computer with DH+?
3. Upgrade to a SLC 5/05 and install a NIC on the computer.
What would be the best way to achieve this task? I am open to any ideas.
