Ok so I assume the answer is no, because it's AB. Other Manufactures have small utilities for this.
Is there any way I can "Download" a program to an Allen Bradley PLC without RS 500 or RS 5000?
Basically we have a lot of remote machine with Windows Panel PCs on them and would like to be able to update the program by copying it to the Panel PC and then "downloading" it to the PLC instead of directly from my Computer which has RS 500 and RS 5000 on it. I want to do this to minimize the chances of a "download" being interrupted and taking down a PLC.
These machines are connected with Cell Routers so their connections can be flaky.
Am I wrong is there a way?
