Referencing I/O as Integers
JustAnotherEngineer posted a topic in Allen Bradley / Rockwell Automation
I'm doing a PLC upgrade and the system currently has a ControlLogix controlling various other racks. Some have been updated to ControlLogix, some to CompactLogix and some still remain on PLC5 racks. We are upgrading from the PLC5 to a CompactLogix in the cabinet we're working on. The program currently moves INT values from an RIO to a different integer. To keep the conversion as simple as possible i was wondering if I can reference the I/O cards as an INT set so that i can just easily swap them out. Attached is a picture of how they're doing it. Simple move command but I would love to see if there was an easy way to swap them out without writing hundreds of lines of code. For reference this is 2 full 16 card racks. Thank you,
