Re: [foxboro] ControlLogix - again.

Glen,
    We are using an ABGW30FT with an A cable connection direct to the RS232
port on the front of a CL5550.

A few of the details:

1.  The Configuration Selector Switch P0970VB settings are the same as for
a PLC-5:  1,2,3,4,7,8,9,11,12,14,16 are closed.

2.  From the Selector Switch to the CL5550 is a straight-thru 25-pin female
to 9-pin d-shell female, about 40 feet long.

3.  The CL5550 is set up with a PLC-5 emulation for the gateway values.

4.  19,200 baud.

5.  The ECB printouts:

A10AG6_ECB:PRIMARY_ECB

  NAME   PRIMARY_ECB
  TYPE   ECBPG
  DESCRP
  NRBUS  1
  BUSOPT 3
  BUSTYP 3
  PIOWDT 3
  MPOLL  0
  BAUD   3
  DATBIT 8
  PARITY 0
  STPBIT 1

A10AG6_ECB:109608

  NAME   109608
  TYPE   ECB15
  DESCRP
  DEV_ID 109608
  HWTYPE 31
  EXTYPE 0
  SWTYPE 15
  PCTYPE 5
  PCADDR 1
  HBEAT  0
  PLCRIT 0
  FLTPNT 1
  RES02  3

We are planning within 6 months to use ABGW30BFT redundant communication to
a redundant CL5555, with the A cable going into the serial port of one of
the PLC's and the B cable into the other.

It is my understanding that one could instead use a KF2 converter to
DataHighway+, and go into a DataHighway+ card in the CL5550 rack.   We have
not tried this and are not planning to do this at present.
