I have a question on a subject of etherent nodes in rslogix 5000 project tree for a project that I am working on. I am trying to read if read results from 2 Cognex Dataman 302 scanners are valid into the PLC (CompactLogix 1769-L24ER-QB1B) by using explicit CIP messages to get the information.
Service Code= 0xE
Dataman ID Reader Object Class Code= 0x74
Instance= 0x1
Attribute ID= 0x10
I do not have anymore Implicit Ethernet/IP connections available in the controller, so I'm trying to do a work around to use Explicit CIP messages to read data from the dataman scanners.
The question I have is, do I need to have the scanners in the project tree in RSLogix 5000 in order to use their communications path in the CIP message? If not, how would I go about setting up the proper communications path to read data from them (If this will work)?
