Hi,
I have a SLC 500 and connected to it via DH+ is a PanelView Plus. The PV+ has an ethernet port
I'm looking for a way to get the status of some bits in the PLC and register them in a database as well as use them to display "real time" alerts in screens located in our production line. By "real time" I'm not meaning milliseconds, I think anything around 2 secs should do the trick.
According to Allen Bradley the PV+ can't pull these values and store them in a database, apparently it is restricted to datalogs.
I have been looking at the OPC Servers like Matrikon and Kepware. Actually Matrikon has an ODBC client for OPC Server, could this work?
Any other suggestions?
