I'm putting one together tomorrow to look at PLCs (S5 using ibh usb cable) that are on a carousel.
Rwgards,
Barry.
Thank you for sharing Barry, this is actually the approach I am going to try (with a SILEX DS-600 USB host instead of a raspberry pi, and a 1747-UIC Cable). Ken and company had some luck with it in the thread he linked above.
James, thanks for the link. I had not heard of SantaClara Systems but they do have some unique products and resources on their site. Doesn't look like they play in the DH485 space but a good resource to have for later.
Thanks for the help everyone, I will let you all know how it goes with the USB host route.
