Hello All:
I have recently been tasked to add a touch screen to a piece of equipment on the floor. Now the equipment uses a micrologix 1500. While searching for a suitable touch screen, I came across a couple DH 485 Panel View 550's. Now I know that micrologix 1500 will not connect directly to dh 485. I was just wondering if my best bet was to buy a 1761-NET-AIC or actually order a rs-232 panel view 300 micro. So I would be looking at either spending the $200 on the adapter or $800 on the screen.
Is the 1761-NET-AIC overly complicated to install and set-up or would it be pretty simple?
Thanks;
Nesstar
