Messaging Between ControlLogix Controllers and PLC-5 or SLC 5/04 Controllers

Local DH+ Messaging:
ControlLogix Controller
in One Chassis to a PLC-5

This application sends a DH+ message from a ControlLogix controller A
through a 1756-DHRIO or 1756-DHRIOXT module to a PLC-5 controller B
on a DH+ link. Local DH+ messaging can be used to send the message. In this
case, local DH+ messaging is used.

The following figure illustrates the steps you must use in this application.

1756-DHRIO

PLC-5/60 Controller A
Node Number: 015

DH+ Link
Link ID 1

41284

Channel A
Node Number: 010

ControlLogix Controller
Slot Number: 0

IMPORTANT

When you are using local DH+ messaging between a ControlLogix
controller and a PLC controller, you do not need a routing table. The
default setting on the module out of the box is to have no routing table
configured.

However, if a routing table is programmed, verify it is programmed
correctly or a configuration fault can occur.

Also, controller slot values for channels that are configured for DH+ are
applied or restored to default value, by using the software tabs. Failure to
enter the correct value generates a configuration fault for that channel.
