Begin4 Title: PLC.pm perl module to read/write data with Allen-Bradley PLC's Version: 0.14 Entered-date: January 13, 2004 Description: PLC.pm and the included example programs allow you to read and write data from/to Allen-Bradley PLC5, MicroLogix, and SLC programmable controllers, All data types that I know about are supported. Currently, three different communication methods are supported: (1)- Ethernet (to Ethernet PLC5's and SLC505's, and to MicroLogix using a 1761-NET-ENI module); (2)- Serial Port (RS232 to port 0 of a PLC5 or SLC, or to a KF2 module connected to PLC's and/or SLC's via DH+, or to a KF3 module connected to SLC's via DH485); and (3)- ControlLogix Gateway (Ethernet to a ControlLogix Gateway with an ethernet module and at least one DHRIO module connected to DH+ PLC's and/or SLC's). Note: PLC5, SLC, KF2, KF3, DHRIO, and ControlLogix Gateway are registered trademarks of Allen-Bradley, but Allen-Bradley has no connection with this software. This version is still somewhat experimental. Read the warnings before you use it. Use at your own risk. Developed and tested under Linux.
