If your device setup has a Source and Destination controllers that communicate with each other via Controller Link:
|
Driver Runtime Parameter |
PLC 1 (Source) Parameters |
PLC 2 (Destination) Parameters |
|
Local IP |
|
|
Then to successfully communicate with PLC2:
-
Configure the Source station (PLC1) station under Driver Settings -> Advanced as
<Network of PLC1>:<Node Address of PLC1>
-
Configure the Destination station (PLC2) in the Main or Standard Driver sheets under the Station field as
<Ethernet IP of PLC1>:<Port number of PLC1>:<Network of PLC2>:<Node Address of PLC2>:<Unit ID of PLC2 (optional)>: <Mode of PLC2 (optional)>
Note: The source node is configured in the Station field of Advanced Settings dialog box of the Channel Selector page with the syntax <Network number>:<Source Node>. For more information see Setting the Station ID of a Device.
