Converting a simple PLC 5 control system to 5000. Want to use a DHRIO contrologix module to monitor my PLC 5 and test my converted 5000 logix
Issue: the PLC 5 code has these "block transfer read write" functions in the ladder and the the converted 5000 program does not. What purpose do these BTR/W modules do in the PLC 5 (I read the manual and it confuses me) I don't even think there is a "block transfer module" in the PLC 5 chassis: just digital & analog inputs, and and analog output modules
1.What does BTR/W do in PLC 5
2.What do I need to do to make it work for testing my 5000 code when monitoring PLC5 inputs
3. Do I need to do anything with BTR/W when I scrap the whole PLC5 and replace it with contrologix
Thank you!!!
