Hi there,
We've got multiple PLCs (say up to tens of them) with the same configuration communicating back via Modbus to one IP. Is there any SCADA software that will easily let us add new units to monitor (i.e. from a template sort of thing?).
From what I've seen so far this isn't straightforward to do on all SCADA software, and would require loads of copying and pasting etc when there's a new unit.
We just want to be able to click 'add unit' and put in the ID of the unit, and it starts monitoring, alarms etc.
Oh yes, and it has to be fairly affordable, maybe up to $2000. Hoping we don't have to develop something from scratch.
I saw people mentioned AdvancedHMI in the past, but that it doesn't like multiple Modbus devices on one IP?
Thanks!
