Hi,
I have been using DF1 driver for Allen Bradley MicroLogix series. Now I have been given a new Job where in I have to use Omron PLC. The doubt i have is -> Omron uses something called Device net driver & even heard that Allen Bradley has the same driver for some of its series.
1) Are these drivers universal?? Where in every PLC manufacturer has to develop these under some set of rules?
2) Can a PLC manufacturer have his own driver regardless of universal drivers?
3) Is DF1 an universal protocol or its just an own driver of Allen Bradley?
