I'm working on a system with around 12 Channels and different PLCs with different KEPServerEX drivers.
We converted a PLC program to run on a test 1756-L73 ControlLogix 5570 controller. I only had to update the InTouch tags items in the database from (B3:7/3) to (B3[7].3) and everything seemed to work fine.
Now we have the production PLC and its a 1769-L33ER CompactLogix 5370 Controller. Again, everything seemed to work until we tried to write to a tag in the PLC. All can be read but the only way to write to an address in this PLC is to create a tag in KEPServerEX and use the OPC quick client to change the value. I can then change the item in the InTouch DB to the KEPServerEX tag and that will work.
None of the existing PLCs in the KEPServerEX configuration have tags configured. Just changing from a ControlLogix to CompactLogix requires tags to be added into KEPServerEX but only for writes?
I hope I'm missing a setting or something.
