Lookout with contrologix

Hello,

I am putting a Controllogix system together using a 1756-L1/A 5550 processor

I assumed that Lookout had a driver but I don't see one on the 6.1 eval.

I would like to communicate on the serial port but I can buy a ethernet module if necessary.

Thanks,

JB

Lookout doesnt have a driver for ControlLogix. You have to get an OPC server such as RSLinx OEM and use the OPCclient driver in Lookout to communicate with it.
