Serial port connectivity? #36

Closed ryangriggs closed 2 months ago

ryangriggs commented 2 months ago

Does this library support connecting to PLC serial port? such as AB Micrologix or AB SLC/5? If so, how to write the initiateConnection() function?

Thanks for a great project!

Direct serial connections are not supported. However, you can use a 1761-NET-ENI module connected to the serial port and initiate an IP connection to the module and this has been well tested.

Great, thank you for a fast reply.
