They configured OK and RSLinx seemed happy, but it was as if there were nothing connected to the other end. I tried 2 different UIC modules, neither would see the PLC. I assumed the PLC was faulty (removed from a machine for a reason?) and didn't worry about it until I tried to connect to a working machine.
RSLINX CLASSIC LITE MANUAL DRIVER
This driver worked great with the 5/03, but when I tried a spare fixed 500 it wouldn't work. We then upgraded RSLinx to 2.58, which includes the "DH485 UIC devices" driver. It worked great on these fixed units as well as some 5/03s. We purchased a 1747-UIC module and did some preliminary testing with an earlier version of RSLinx (2.53 I think) that did not include the UIC driver. Running RSLinx Classic Lite, v2.58.00.15 CPR 9 SR 4 Connecting to 1747-L40B via 1747-UIC, SER A, REV D, FRN 1.3 We have in service a number of these fixed SLC 500 units, but we're running short of computers that work with the old PIC module.

The following is a brief example of how to connect to RSLinx OPC Server from LabVIEW using our example VI.
To learn more about DataSocket, visit Integrating the Internet into The API provides an interface for different data types, converting the data into a stream of bytes that can be sent across a network via TCP/IP. DataSockets have an OPC layer, allowing you to read and write to an OPC Server from LabVIEW (or LabWindows/CVI).ĭataSocket is a technology based on TCP/IP composed of two elements: the DataSocket API and the DataSocket server. LabVIEW itself is not an OPC Client, but it can be used to communicate to OPC Servers through the DataSocket VIs. The cable model number used was 1761-CBL-PM02. This document was created using RSLinx 2.20.01.107.01, Allen Bradley MicroLogix 1500 PLC, ServerExplorer 2.4.1, Lookout 4.5 and the LabVIEW DSC module 6.0.2.

If you decide to use the LabVIEW DDE VIs, then you need to have the full version of RSLinx. The drawback of DDE connection is that it is slower than OPC. The DDE server is only available for Rockwell Automation DDE clients in the OEM version.
Other Allen Bradley PLCs can be used on the OPC server by manually adding the addresses to be seen.Īnother mechanism of communication between applications and RSLinx is through the DDE server that comes with RSLinx.

RSLinx 2.0 to 2.20 OPC servers only support the browsing capability on Control Logix 5000 series PLCs. RSLinx OPC server is an in-process type of server, which means that you have to load a DLL to communicate with it. The OPC server is available only with the OEM version or the full version, so the lite version of RSLinx does not have the OPC Server included. Rockwell Automation RSLinx 2.10 is an OPC server, meaning that any OPC Client should be able to exchange data with this server. This version has been upgraded to version 2.20.
Rockwell Automation developed their own OPC Server in version 2.0 of RSLinx. Any OPC client, such as Lookout, BridgeVIEW, or other packages on the market, can connect to this server. With the release of Industrial Automation Server CD 1.1, this server became an OPC server. The NI Industrial Automation Servers CD has an Allen Bradley (RSLinx) driver that can communicate with RSLinx through a dynamic link library (DLL).
