That AOI is not supported in Echo because it's based upon CIP Socket Object. he CIP Socket Interface Object (Class 0x349) is not fully supported for outgoing external communications on FactoryTalk Logix Echo controllers. Because the emulation software blocks outgoing external CIP Class 3 and raw socket ...

It appears the ShutDownMacro was executed by User "aabbas" from the Display "TBX_TBB". Open the Graphic Display TBX_TBB with the editor and look for a object that calls the ShutDownMacro.

The controller has two asynchronous processes: The IO tree and the Logic Scan. When you add connections to the IO tree, it creates IO tags and updates those tag at the requested packet interval, RPI. Below you see the Local IO and the Hilsher IO tag. You will write logic to copy data between these tags. ...

"ETHERNET-MODULE Generic Ethernet Module" is available in all Logix5000 controllers firmware v16 and later. Your 1769-L30ER (firmware v20-v38) is greater than v16, has an embedded EtherNet/IP port and supports EtherNet/IP IO. A Logix5000 controller with an EtherNet/IP port can do CIP Implicit messaging ...

Input Assembly = 101 with an array of 32 bytes plus 32-bit run/idle header Output Assembly = 102 with an array of 32 bytes plus 32-bit run/idle header You might have to play with the size in bytes. I added 4 bytes to both the O->T and T->O because Hilsher showed the 32-bit header both ways and typically ...

For the Logix IO tree, you need to know: Path - which will include: the IP Address for the Hilsher Slot number Assembly Instance IDs Size - how many bytes Each slot has three assemblies Input - how many bytes did you configure on the Hilscher side? Does it have the 32-bit run/idle ...

Allen-Bradley does not preset the Controller as an Adapter that can be owned by a 3rd party device. The Hilscher will have to be the Adapter and the Allen-Bradley controller will be the Owner. In theory, you could make Produce tags in Logix and Consume those tags in Hilscher (the Consumer is the Owner), ...

Petr, Because the Hilscher card supports EtherNet/IP Slave, I would expect the CompactLogix would own the Hilscher Input/Output Assembly Instances via the IO tree and ether an EtherNet/IP Generic (you manually enter the assembly instance IDs from the Hilscher manual) or an EDS-based Add-On Profile ...

First, I'd want to know what protocols are available on both systems (e.g. Allen Bradley & Siemens could do Modbus TCP, EtherNet/IP, ProfiBUS DP etc). Then, I'd want to know what kind of data, how much data, and how often to send it. Modbus TCP is not as fast as an real-time IO connection and not used ...

Since you have v38.02 (07/2026) installed, you should have the latest AOPs. In the v34.04 and v34.05 release notes, there are some changes to the Logix Designer component which host the AOPs so I generally I think it would be good to get the latest minor revision of the Logix Designer. Having said ...

Usually OEMs use exactly the same program in all the instances of a machine and the (shared) HMI just has a separate topic/shortcut for each controller. Either the controllers each have a unique IP address or they are NAT's to create a unique address (corresponding to the unique topic/shortcut. IDK why ...

RM, I would try upgrading Studio5000 from 34.03 to v34.05 (or try a different PC that already has v34.05). If you look at the release notes and search for "Add-on Profile" you'll notices some changes to the AOP host (LogixDesigner) as well as the product-specific AOPs. If you just download the product-specific ...

Layden, If you copy the Timer to a DINT[3], you will see the hidden data in the first DINT. The first 3 bytes (0-2)are the CST that was captured on the previous scan of the Timer instruction. The 4th byte contains the Timer status bits... e.g. EN, TT, DN. The Timer ACC logic is like this: ...
