Guys,
I have an application that requires testing. I have a CompactLogix L35CR connected to a VersaView CE 1250H over DF1.
I have no Ethernet Module availabe so what i was hoping to achieve was to set a communications path to L35CR over ControlNet using an ControlLogix L61 rack with 1756-ENBT/A and 1756-CNB/D.
When I drill down to go online/download (via ethernet) to L35CR I get the yellow question mark icon and unrecognised device for the device type. Strangely it identifies it as a 1769-L35CR Control Net Port in Online Name column.
I am confident I have the correct EDS file because if I download directly over DF-1 it recognises the device. Rockwell have assured me a communications path like this is possible.
Can someone please advise? If not possible is there another option? Maybe through ethernet->HMI->DF1?
Thanks Guys
