Change PV plus 700 to red lion

[PaulKim1003 3]

Hello 

My boss wants me to change AB PV plus 700 to red lion hmi G3 Kadet HMI.

The PLC is allen bradley.

How hard is it to change from AB to red lion?

Can anyone tell me how the red lion would communicate with Allen bradley PLC?

Any free software that can do that?

Red Lion has free software on their website called Crimson 3.

Tons of native drivers to various PLC platforms and protocols.

Is the PLC a MicroLogix, SLC, Compact or ControlLogix?

The obvious difference is in the native tagging scheme versus the old B3 or N7 file structures.

Not aware of any conversion tools, you'll have to recreate on your own.

Red Lion's free technical support is readily available ((717) 767-6511) during typical office hours.  There are some features that are just plain goofy, but that is with any platform.
