Hi all,
I'm working with some OEM skid vendors for the purposes of integrating their skids into a Delta V installation. I will have a series of AB ControlLogix processors connected to my Delta V installation using EIOC modules. I have not worked with an EIOC module before, so I'm wondering how the configuration/mapping works between the systems. If I have the OEM vendors package the read/write tags that I need to interact with via the EIOC into a UDDT (User-defined Data Type) structure in RSLogix 5000, does the EIOC allow me to work directly with the UDDT? Are there limitations and configuration restrictions that I need to be aware of?
I have searched for the answer and through documentation but I have not been able to find the answer. I have purchased a development system to test out this functionality, but it is months away from arrival and I would like to know the answer sooner.
Hoping someone out there has done this work already...
Thanks.
