Integration between SLC5/03 and FactoryTalk View Site Edition Station

[devang0909]

Hi,

Can I integrate SLC5/03 card (CAT- 1747-L532) with FactoryTalk View Site Edition Station 15 Display (9701-VWSB015AENE) for system having maximum 450 points. If not than please suggest some other software.

Well, sure you can. RSLinx Enterprise can connect to the controller using DF1 Full Duplex or DH485 (using a 1747-UIC interface) and you can address all of the SLC-500 data tables in the FactoryTalk View software.

In general I would use Machine Edition instead of Supervisory Edition in a single-controller, single-screen application.

But you probably have a reason for using Site Edition, like VBA support or future expansion.
