Simplify PLC Data Transfers

Oct. 2, 2009
Designed to reside in a single slot of a Rockwell Automation ControlLogix chassis, the Message Manager (ILX56-MM) module is a multi-system data transfer engine that allows users to transfer PLC data from OEM equipment to a Rockwell Automation PAC/PLC without modifying the OEM’s code. 
The module acts as an aggregator of data transfers between multiple PLCs by pulling all data transfer code into one location. It requires no special software to support or maintain. For configuration, the module uses a built-in graphical Web-based tool. Data transfers can be set up for up to 16 controllers including: Rockwell Automation SLC 500, PLC-5, MicroLogix, CompactLogix, and ControlLogix controllers via any network supported in the Rockwell Automation 1756 ControlLogix platform; Siemens S7 PLCs and other PLCs using Industrial Ethernet protocol; and Schneider Electric and other PLCs using Modbus TCP/IP protocol.
