In-Rack PC with Wonderware SuiteLink-DAServer, CLX
PC56-SLS
The PC56 with SLS-DAServer (Data Access Server) allows you to access data from a ControlLogix PLC directly across the backplane, and then communicate via SuiteLink, DDE, or FastDDE to local or remote Application Objects.
The PC56-SLS is an industrial PC for the ControlLogix platform that provides high speed communication with both local and remote ControlLogix processors. The PC56-SLS allows users to communicate with ControlLogix processors in an efficient, distributed, and cost-effective fashion. The PC56-SLS includes a graphical interface called Archestra SMC (Management Console) for easy configuration and diagnostic support.
Features and Benefits
The PC56-SLS allows you to access tag data from the ControlLogix Controller to a DAS Engine located on the PC56-SLS.
- Improved reliability and performance: No middleware between client software and ControlLogix hardware
- Ability to run Application Objects: Application Objects can be run locally on the PC56-SLS providing highly reliable applications, because the application is right in the rack with the ControlLogix processor.
- Easy Hardware Redundancy: Using two PC56-SLS, and then simply specifying two IP addresses for a very fast switching mechanism to support Redundancy.
- Communicates with the ControlLogix controller directly through the ControlBus backplane, which simplifies installation and improves performance.
- No modifications to the ControlLogix controller program are necessary.
- Supports multiple ControlLogix controllers.
- Supports both local (same rack as PC56-SLS) and remote (via 1756-ENET or 1756-CNET modules) controllers.
- Easy-to-use configuration tools. Tag scan rates can be individually configured for optimal performance.
Applications
The PC56 SLS allows you to access data from the ControlLogix Controller to a DAS Engine located on the PC56-SLS. Multiple ControlLogix controllers may be accessed, either in the local rack or in remote racks connected via Ethernet or ControlNet.
