Talking to a MicroLogix 1200

[quote=“pat.stave”]I need to get some data from a MicroLogix 1200 CPU.
I understand that network cards are not availible, but that there exists a RS232-Ethernet/IP converter (1761-NET-ENI)

Is this supported by the Ignition driver?
If so, will tag browsing be supported?
From other forum posts i see that there are alternatives to the 1761-NET-ENI. Are anyone recommended over others?[/quote]

I was able to connect to a micrologix 1200 using a net eni with ignition. I cant recall if browsing was supported but I dont think that it was, I may be wrong though.

I hate the net-eni, so I would look to use a digi one iap or lantronix xpress dr to convert to ethernet/ip. I cant say if this would work with ignition though, maybe Ill try it when I get a chance.

At the very least, if you do use the net-eni, run the power thru one of the open relay outputs on the 1200, then set up some type of watchdog logic that will toggle the output to reboot the net eni when it locks up. those things are notorious for locking up.
