Here's the project: A plant has a whole network of AB PLCs on ethernet and connected to RSView for SCADA purposes.
There is a single Modicon Quantum on the plant E-Net via a NOE 711-00. This connection is currently used for maintenance purposes only using Concept 2.1.
The client wants to gather basic operating info from the Quantum and have it available through the RSView SCADA.
What is required to do this? All of my experience has been in either talking to AB devices or via OPC/DDE for Microsoft Office clients. Do you use a OPC driver and then point RSLinx at it or what... I'm confused and there seems to be little info out there for this particular application.
Any help, suggestions about vendors, etc, would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
John Kelley
