Hi Guys,
Maybe you have some experience with this set-up and can give me some pointers.
Project is to use an Emerson DCS to communicate (via MODBUS) with AB drives, E300, etc using a redundant system (communication channels A and B from the DCS).
We are looking using redundant CLX controllers to communicate with this setup. Is the only way to do this using a RED CLX pair with MVI modules in a 3rd rack? or could the MVI modules be placed in the two RED racks (as per attached picture).
Is there a better way to do this (maybe not using redundant PLCs) but guarantee two separate communication paths to the devices (channel A and Channel B)
Thanks
Vic
