Hello Gentlemen. I had wanted to set up communication between a VFD and a plc. So far so Good till I got to configuration the IP addresses. I’ve been setting this up in my lab and have few questions, this is the set up.
SLC 5/05 processor
22-comm-e adapter
22-xcomm-dc
Power Flex 4 VFD
9300-rades
This is how far I’ve got. I have gotten to set up the 22-comm-e IP address and wrote logic for the MSG instruction. (Attached)
Question: What will the following IP address have to be for?
Slc processor CH1?
MSG Instruction Ethernet IP device?
22-comm-e has been setup via bootp IP address 192.196.1.4
9300-RADES Ethernet IP address?
And finally the IP addresses for Power flex 4?
Also In the logic program does the Timeout MSG instruction have to be constantly sent of just on power up?
Thanks for your time and help.
