This is my first project dealing with an intelligent AB MCC, Centerline Product Line. Has anyone used RSLogix 5000 to get data on equipment inside the Centerline MCC. We can't use IntelliCenter because comms will be bog down using a radio.
My reading have found one way is the DeviceNet Tag Generator to develop all my controller tags for each equipment in the MCC. Supposedly a CD is provided with the custom ordered MCC which will do this for me.
Another way is just find the Starter, Power Monitor, or VFD Drive and add it to your tree to get each equipment I/O since it's on the network, maybe use messaging to get the data.
Another way is use Studio 5000 V30 and add the add on files that come with the CD and your done. The only issue is that the PLC communicating with this MCC is a 1769-L35E, which can only take V20 or lower.
For those that have used RSLogix 5000 using a L35E controller or similar what worked best for you to get Power Monitor Data, Starter Data, or VFD Data with RSLogix 5000 V20.
