Information:
I do not have any exposure to device net, I always assumed that it was a type of RIO network. However, when discussing an upcoming project, device net was mentioned as a means of passing data between different brands of PLC's. Similar to Modbus.
Question:
Can this be done with Allen-Bradley PLC's? This will be for a small skid mounted piece of equipment, so I'm really asking about SLC's or Compactlogix. We're still buying new SLC systems, so that would be the preferred platform.
thanks,
Ken
