So I have a micrologix 1500 on network through an ENI. I need to read an integer from it to my SLC5/05 so I can stop pumps when the remote tank is at level.
It occurs to me I have never done this before. As the micrologix is actually being communicated with through serial and not ethernet I'm unsure how to set up the read MSG command. I thought about it being possible for a WRITE MSG but the micrologix of course cannot send to an IP address from a serial port.
Any bright ideas?
