What is the best way to set a bit over an ethernet/IP network on an Allen-Bradley ControlLogix Series PLC from a Windows PC.
We have a program running on a plant networked Windows PC that is able to run an executable or script when a measurement is recorded out of tolerance. But we want to be able to write a bit on the controller from the PC when this happens.
Is there a simple way/script to connect to the IP address of the PLC and write some data to a tag? Or will I have to write my own solution using Ethernet/IP drivers such as AdvancedHMI E/IP to accomplish this?
