gilesbradshaw commented 5 years ago

would this work with plc5s?

jhenson29 commented 5 years ago

I don't think so. I think it only works with ControlLogix and CompactLogix right now. I didn't think PLC5 even had EIP, but I did a quick google search and saw that it does?

gilesbradshaw commented 5 years ago

yes with a card you can bridge ethernet ip to dh+

cmseaton42 commented 5 years ago

That moment when you accidently hit the close issue button lol

cmseaton42 commented 5 years ago

Hey @gilesbradshaw, there currently isnt support for PLC5. There is another library out in the node world that implements cpppo that may be of use to you but I am unable to locate it at the moment :(. The library is written to reference the specific EIP Tag Instances in the more recent Rockwell controllers.

Ok thanks - maybe I have a play with it anyhow - I wonder how hard it could be to adapt

jhenson29 commented 5 years ago

This? https://www.npmjs.com/package/nodepccc

gilesbradshaw commented 5 years ago

Thanks for the link I'll have a play with that too hopefully

cmseaton42 commented 5 years ago

@jhenson29, that's the one lol. My google skills aren't up to par I suppose 😞 haha.

anyhow, I'm going to go ahead and close this issue, though feel free to continue discussing :)
