they do not understand one another's data. Example: Try connecting a serial cable between a PC
running TISOFT and an Allen-Bradley SLC 5/05. TISOFT expects one protocol, while the Allen-
Bradley expects another.
It is important to know which devices the RMC supports. We support the following devices, and
any other device that communicates with the same protocol as one of these:
• Allen-Bradley Ethernet PLC-5 (1785-L20E, -L40E, or -L80E)
• Allen-Bradley PLC-5 with the PLC-5 Ethernet Interface Module (1785-ENET)
• Allen-Bradley Ethernet SLC 5/05
• Allen-Bradley ControlLogix with Ethernet Interface Module (1756-ENET)
• Allen-Bradley SoftLogix 5
• Allen-Bradley RSLinx
• Automationdirect.com DirectLogic 205 (240, 250) with an H2-ECOM Ethernet module
• Automationdirect.com DirectLogic 405 (430, 440, 450) with an H4-ECOM Ethernet module
• Modicon Quantum with the 140 NOE 211 00 Ethernet TCP/IP module
• Omron CS1 and CV Programmable Controllers with an ETN01 Ethernet module.
• Siemens Simatic TI505 with the CTI 2572 Ethernet TCP/IP module
• Siemens S7-300 with the CP 343-1 TCP module
• Siemens S7-400 with the CP 443-1 TCP module
• SoftPLC Corporation's SoftPLC
It is Delta's goal to support all major Ethernet devices. However, we need your feedback to
determine which Ethernet devices are being used, so please call Delta Computer Systems, Inc. to
discuss additional Ethernet device support.
PC-Based Control and HMI Packets
Any existing software package that supports reading from or writing to one of the above PLCs
should be able to read from and write to the RMC. Most such packages will support at least one
of these devices. See Using Other Ethernet Packages with the RMC ENET for further details.
Communicating with Ethernet TCP/IP Masters
For further details on communicating between the RMC and a PLC Ethernet TCP/IP master,
select one of the following topics:
