Can I communicate with a Micrologix 1400?

Solved!
Go to solution

I'm trying to communicate with an Allen Bradley Micrologix 1400 using the OPC Client object and RSLinx Single Node as my OPC Server.  I have Lookout version 6.1.  So far I've been able to browse the plc in Lookout, but the diagnostics in RSLinx shows the connection toggling between active and inactive.  Has anyone done this before or know what the problem is?

Create a diagnostic file on the lookout side. Create opclient.ini file in lookout folder. Input

 

[opclient]
DiagnosticPath=D:\

 

The diagnostic file name is the opclient object name.

 

Is there any other opc client connecting the server?

Ryan,

The problem was with my server communication settings.  After changing the values I was able to communicate.

 

Thanks
