Calling all the AB gurus.
I am doing my first large AB project. I am using RSLogix 5000, but only have ladder logic. I am getting the hang of most of it until this part.
I have a Barnett Engineering LINK Autodialer. It is going to connect to the CompactLogix 32E. The Barnett has a serial and ethernet port. Unfortunately the Barnett does not support Ethernet I/P only modbus TCP. Therefore I'm stuck with the serial port. I can live with this. According to the documentation the Barnett is the master and controls the polling.
Protocols used by the module are:
Modbus slave
Modbus master
Modbus TCP/IP slave
Modbus TCP/IP master
Allen-Bradley DF1 Point-to-Point PLC5 master
Allen-Bradley DF1 Point-to-Point SLC-500 master.
I'm assuming I use a message intruction set up as read, and either the SLC or PLC5 mode. I tried this following the documentation for source address N:10:0 as the first address in the barnett and my destinaion address is Autodialer_INT in the PLC. This is set-up as an interger. I have read the documentation to adjust the value back to a DINT, but first to get the info.
I keep getting an F006 error code on the message instruction.
Any ideas?
Also can you change the message instructions parameters while online?
