Probably a rather basic question, I'm just getting started in my transition to ControlLogix from PLC5s and SLC/500s....
We have a project coming up to do modifications to an existing system which consists of a 1756-L61 Processor in a completely full 17 slot I/O rack. We're going to need to add another rack in a new panel located about 20 feet away from the existing one.
What's going to be the easiest way to add the additional I/O? What hardware is it going to take? The existing rack has a Devicenet module (1756-DNB) which is talking to several VFDs - is that going to be of use?
