Hi all,
I've been asked if a check weigher a client has purchased will be able to talk to their PLC. The device talks over Ethernet using ASCII, but this is a bit outside of what I've done before so I'm not even sure of which questions to ask!
Below is the relevant info from the manual - can anyone tell me (a) if it's possible to get data out of this machine and into a Control Logix via an existing 1756-ENBT; and (b) where to start at the CLX end? I'm assuming it would be a message instruction, but I'm really not sure.
Thanks!
