Is there any software that will allow me to download to a ControlLogix PLC (I don't need to edit or even look at the code) without buying an additional license for RSLogix 5000 ??
The reason I ask is my company supports a lot of remote plants, and I can log onto the PLC from my office, however on some of these plants the internet isn't very good, they can be very remote. What I am looking for is some software I can put on their computer so I can transfer a file then download it to the PLC without the fear of the connection dropping out and causing them to not be able to run. (If the connection fails when I'm transfering files I can just start again when I notice)
Just for a reference, I can log onto their plc and view tags live, but it is very slow, and to download can take over an hour.
