Delta RMC151 - Manual (Page 429)

6 Communication
your device supports reading and writing to registers in any of the PLCs listed below, then
your device should be able to communicate with the RMC:
• Allen-Bradley SLC5/05 and PLC-5
The RMC emulates these controllers by responding to DF1 requests over the CSP and
EtherNet/IP protocols. See the CSP, EtherNet/IP, and DF1 Addressing topics for details.
• Omron CS/CJ PLC
The RMC emulates these controllers by responding to requests over the FINS/UDP
protocol. See the FINS/UDP and FINS Addressing topics for details.
• Modbus/TCP Controller
The RMC emulates a generic Modbus/TCP controller, responding to requests made over
Modbus/TCP. See the Modbus/TCP and Modbus Addressing topics for details.
• Mitsubishi Ethernet Controller
The RMC emulates a Mitsubishi Ethernet controller listening for Procedure Exist
requests. See the Mitsubishi Procedure Exist Protocol topic for details.
Note: Even if your device cannot communicate with any of the above PLCs, it may still be able
to communicate with the RMC if it can make requests in any of the RMC’s supported industrial
Ethernet protocols. See the Supported Ethernet Protocols section in the Ethernet Overview
topic for details.
Instructions for Specific PLCs
Delta has provided instructions for setting up and using the following master Ethernet
controllers for communication with the RMC:
• Allen-Bradley Controllers via Message Block
• Allen-Bradley Controllers via EtherNet/IP I/O
• AutomationDirect PLCs with the RMC
• GE PLCs with the RMC
• Mitsubishi Q-Series PLCs with the RMC
• Omron PLCs via FINS
• Omron PLCs via EtherNet/IP I/O
• RSView with the RMC
• Siemens S7 PLCs via PROFIBUS
• Siemens S7 PLCs via PROFINET
• Schneider Electric PLCs via EtherNet/IP I/O
• Schneider Electric PLCs via Modbus
Online Examples
Delta has several example PLC and HMI programs for communicating with the RMC.
These examples will speed up your application development time. Refer to the Downloads
section of Delta's website at www.deltamotion.com.
