Redlion mc to communicate to rslogix500

[Odew_Pinoy]

hello guys, i am trying to configure a red lion modular controller csmstrsx to communicate to an rslogix 5000 set up by way of the enbt/b. I tried adding a module as a generic ethernet on the ab but it is getting faulted. Any easier way to have these two talk to each other.

I would recommend the use of our Native Tags via L5K driver. This allows us to talk to the native tags in the PLC directly.

Thank you..The two are now talking to each other. Another thing is how to set up the crimson for Modular Controller to display real time events on it's rs485 port to a PFM as it is the intention in the first place using crimson 3

This technote will guide you through the process. The only part which is different for Crimson 3 is where the PFM primitive is located. Its now located in the Resource Pane under Active Primitives. The rest of the technote works for C3 as well as C2.
