There are currently special restrictions on communicating with a SLC5/04 via DH+ with a Panel View Plus using EtherNet/IP through our AN-X2-AB-DHRIO, please see the attached tech-note for full details. Read More

The attached document contains both read and write message samples from a ControlLogix, CompactLogix, and SLC 5/05 processors to an SLC 5/04s and PLC5 processor on a DH+ network through the DH+ bridge gateway. Read More

The best driver to use in RSLinx Classic is the Ethernet Devices driver.  Specify the IP Address of the AN-X(2)-AB-DHRIO gateway in the driver configuration.  The gateway emulates  a 4 slot ControlLogix chassis with an ethernet module... Read More

There are several OPC servers that have been tested or are known to work through the AN-X(2)-AB-DHRIO running the DH+ bridge firmware: RSLinx Classic using the Ethernet Devices driver Wonderware using the DASABCIP driver Kepware using the... Read More

The AN-X2-AB-DHRIO's Data Highway Plus firmware does not have a specific limit on the number of nodes it can communicate with (beyond the inherent limits of the DH+ protocol itself), however, be aware that DH+ is a serial based token passing... Read More

If the NS or NET LED is not solid green then check the recommendations below: 1) For networks running at 57k6 or 115k2 bauds it is necessary to have 150 ohm resistors on each end of the network (for 230k4 use 82 ohm resistors) 2) Ensure that at... Read More

Although the AN-X2-AB-DHRIO can technically communicate to a 1756-DHRIO (you can see its node on the DH+ network), the AN-X doesn't support CIP routing over DH+, so you can not actually view the backplane of the 1756-DHRIO's rack. ... Read More

Yes, AN-X2-AB-DHRIO are capable of communicating via EtherNet/IP with a control logix system that had redundant processors. Read More
