Hi..
I have a network question..
Platform: AB CompactLogix+Micro800
machine: bloodsample analysis
Setup: I have "receiver" unit (AB CompactLogix) placed at a hospital - the unit recieves bloodsamples via small tubes from smaller nodes (AB Micro800) placed all around the hospital.
The receiver has an static IP adress but the nodes is set to receive IP adresses from DHCP.
How can i get the nodes IP adresses so the communication can start etc.??
I see two options..
1. Getting ip information from the network (i know the MAC-adresses). But i dont know how to do that from an CompactLogix PLC
2. Getting ip information sent from the nodes - but how to do that??
Can any of you guys help me??
