Hello,
Recently, with great help from the angels on this very forum, I was able to 'talk' with a SLC over DH+ to ControlLogix and pass registers (INTs) back and forth. (this thread: http://www.plctalk.net/qanda/showthread.php?t=58530&page=2)
My question today is, "Can I transfer multiple registers with the same MSG instruction, or use FBL to accomplish the task?"
I have done this very thing using Modbus, Ladder, and MicroLogix, so I am wondering if this scenario can be done in Logix5000. I see in the MSG config that I can specify more than one element to receive, but only one destination tag.
I would just hate to have 100 MSG instructions...
Thanks Again!
