I have an application where a SLC5/05 controlling a borehole pump is communicating over a Radio Ethernet Link with a PC running Citect SCADA in a Remote Control Room. The Customer now wants to add some local HMI at the Pump site.
If I insert a managed Ethernet Switch between the SLC and the Radio Ethernet bridge, would I then be able to connect 2 Ethernet PanelViews into the system ?
Both PanelViews would be running the same project, one would be in the switchroom, the other would be sited adjacent to the pump.
Customer has specified PanelView 600, but I'm trying to talk him into PanelView Plus 700 models.
Reason I'm asking is that there have been a few threads recently on the Ethernet capabilities or otherwise of the SLC5/05, and I'm a little bit confused on what it can and can't do.
Thanks in advance, Tim.
