Hi;


I have designed an HMI which is working in RS View32 works at a machine. Connected PLC is Allen Bradley SLC 5/05 via Ethernet. Now i want to add one more PLC SLC 5/03 with existing HMI (via RS232) to display some values related with this new PLC.

In RS View32, the data source of existing PLC (SLC 5-05) is "Direct Driver". I want to know;

  • How to add one more PLC in existing HMI of RS View32?
  • If I use RS Linx OPC Server, how do I configure the new PLC both in RS Linx and RS View32 Works?
  • I have tried myself but stuck in RS View where system doesnt communicate with PLC (see below images)
