Using RSLinx Gateways
Chapter Objectives
Chapter 11 provides instructions for using DriveTools32 with RSLinx gateways
from a client computer. In this chapter, you will read about the following:
•
Required equipment and settings.
•
Configuring RSLinx for RSLinx gateway communications.
•
Configuring a DriveTools32 application for gateway communications.
•
Connecting to a drive.
Important: This chapter assumes that your server is already set up. It does not
provide instructions for setting up a server.
About RSLinx
Gateways
An RSLinx gateway lets you communicate between networks. For example, you
use your computer on an Ethernet network to access another computer on the
Ethernet network. Through it, you can access a controller on a DH+ network and
then a drive connected to the controller. Figure 11.1 shows an example:
