Cleco to PLC Communication

4 posts in this topic

I have an application where I would like to control a Cleco Torque control.  I simply need to send a Job selection, tool enable, and receive back a job pass/fail signal.  From what I have read so far it appears I need to install an Ethernet IP module into the Cleco controller (Anybus).  Cleco has EDS files available.  Does anyone have any experience in this regard?  I want to make sure I am headed in the correct direction.  Thanks

I am using the following equipment:
PLC:
AB 5069-L306ER COMPACTLOGIX PLC.
Studio 5000 version 30 software.
CLECO:
CLECO GLOBAL CONTROLLER      CLECO   1003-MPRO400GC-P

I've done it a few times, the EIP works well, great for getting back torque/angle results without decoding a serial string.

Did you need to purchase the Anybus IP module?  (the module is about $626).  Or did you use a different method?  Thanks
