N found this old forum http://control.com/thread/1026157627#1026157627 discussing the difference AB PLC 5 and the Siemens alternative S5; and the comparable difference between the AB Controllogix Gateway and the Siemens S7. Here are some comments that may help to clarify the differences and which solution can be optimal pending your application.
As more devices connect to the Internet, it’s more important than ever to protect industrial networks against cyber security vulnerability.
By Chet Namboodri, managing director, Global Enterprise Business, Manufacturing Vertical, Cisco
Manufacturing is going through major changes, similar to what has happened in the health care and education areas , thanks to all the connection to the the Internet of Everything (IoE).
Ethernet vs. fieldbus: the right network for the right application
The promise of time-sensitive networking has pushed the growth of Ethernet networks, but fieldbus networks still account for more than half of the industrial uses. Which is right for you?
EtherNet/IP Implementors Workshop: Vendor Community Working Toward Better EtherNet/IP Experience
As the Annual ODVA Industry Conference approaches, I’m preparing presentations for the EtherNet/IP Implementors Workshop which will be held in conjunction with the conference.
Q & A October 2021: The ANC-100e interface allows how many connections at the same time. Is It Possible To Be Connected With Wonderware InTouch (ABCIP / HMI) And RsLinx (RsLogix 5 / Edit o Debug Program) At The Same Time?
October 2021: The ANC-100e interface allows how many connections at the same time. Is It Possible To Be Connected With Wonderware InTouch (ABCIP / HMI) And RsLinx (RsLogix 5 / Edit o Debug Program) At The Same Time? Answer: There is no limit in the amount of connections that the ANC-100e supports. The limit is […]
What driver should be used in RSLinx Classic to browse or get data from PLC5 or SLC controllers on a DH+ network?
The best driver to use in RSLinx Classic is the Ethernet Devices driver. Specify the IP Address of the ANC-100e gateway in the driver configuration. The gateway emulates a 4 slot ControlLogix chassis with an ethernet module and a DH+ bridge module in the chassis (with just the A channel).
What OPC Servers will work with the ANC-100e gateway running the DH+ firmware?
There are several OPC servers that have been tested or are known to work through ANC-100e running the DH+ bridge firmware: RSLinx Classic using the Ethernet Devices driverWonderware using the DASABCIP driverKepware using the ControlLogix Ethernet driver TopServer using AB controLogix Ethernet Driver PeakHMI AB PCCC SLC Master Driver Additional OPC Servers may work with […]
