Hi long time out...
I´m in a project now, that request to upgrade an old SLC to a new ControlLogix. Just the PLC.
It is connected now to a Wonderware HMI and a Panelview 600 plus.
The connection is Ethernet.
We don´t want to touch the HMI or the Panel. And I don´t have access to them at this time.
I just discover the PLC/SCL mapping, and I think is the way to go.
So I made the mapping (it´s just B3, N7 and another N11).
Now, my question is, how can I test that the mapping is working? I tried setting up a Kepware OPC server to read the tags, but I can´t connect. I tried also with Cimplicity, building a test project to read this tags, and could not connect either.
So, that is the question. How can I test this connection to be sure it´s working fine so that I can comfortably set the new PLC in the field?
Thanks
