3.5 Summary
The MW100 with EIP support can easily communicate via Explicit or I/O messaging to
a variety of PLCs. The MW100 requires that the PLC initiate all communications. Now
that the MW100 can communicate with EIP based PLCs, the full capabilities of the
DAQMASTER can easily be added to a controller network.
A PLC can use the MW100 as remote inputs and outputs within its control logic.
A PLC can write its inputs and register values into the MW100 Communication Channels
(C001 through C300) so that the MW100 can record up to 300 PLC data points
(Communication Channels must be placed into MATH channels; only MATH channels
(A001 to A300) and I/O Channels (001 to 060) can be recorded on an MW100).
Full MW100 network service are available – including real-time web-pages for monitoring
data values, FTP of data files, e-mail, as well as custom web-pages (layout the data with
graphics and save on purchasing a standalone HMI).
