Ethernet IP connection to ControlLogix

[emirror]

I am new to all of this. Background is in PLCs. When I start a new project, I only see a serial port driver. Where do I select Ethernet IP for ControlLogix ?

After you Build the Solution (Build->Build Solution    or    Ctrl+Shift+B), look in your Toolbox at the very top and you should see a group named AdvancedHMIDrivers. If you do not see yout ToolBox go to View->ToolBox or Ctrl+Alt+X

If you still do not see the group in the ToolBox, go to Tools->Options->Windows Forms Designer->ToolBox->Automatically Populate Toolbox     and make sure that setting is True.

Thanks for help. I am having some success. The "tags" in ControlLogix, as you know, are language tags. Such as Start_1 or Run. N7:0, for example that works with SLC 500 PLCs, isn't used as a tag in ControlLogix.

When addressing the tags in a ControlLogix, the Controller scope tags use the names directly. If you want to access Program scope tags, you will need to use the format:

PROGRAM:MainProgram.MyTag
