Hey all,
I am trying to spec a plc for a small system. The machine is a beadblaster utilizing 8, 30 Hp. motors.
The customer has chosen ABB ACS355 drives with modbus comm cards. I need to monitor and transmit speed and load for each of the eight motors. the customer is also comfortable with Siemens plcs, so I am looking at an S7-224.
I have not worked with the modbus protocol so I am stumped as to what all I need to call out.
Thanks for any help!
