Vijeo Designer 6.2.12.24 Allen-Bradley Ethernet/IP (Native) driver isn't working with Allen-Bradley 5380 & 5580 controllers Revision 36 & 37
I have tried connecting a HMISTU855 to both a Allen-Bradley 5380 5069-L306ER & 5069-L320ERM Controllers using the Allen-Bradley EtherNet/IP (Native) driver in Vijeo Designer.
Problem seems to to start when OPC UA option is added to the 5380 & 5580 controllers.
Up until Revision 35 communication is fine. In Revision 36 i was able to communicate with the 5069-L320ERM controller when enabling OPC UA. In 5069-L306ER OPC UA cannot be enabled.
Anyone whos using Vijeo Designer combined with Allen-bradley should read 1756-um023_-en-p.pdf.
There are limitations on number of OPC UA tags different processors.
Before I even read about the OPC UA functionality is tried the following.
Excel combined with RSlinx was able to communicate with all Revisions.
AdvancedHMI.com project in Visual Studio could also communicate with all Revisions.
It seems that Vijeo Designer 6.2.12.24 Allen-Bradley EtherNet/IP (Native) driver is the problem.
Does anyone know if there would be a newer driver in Vijeo Designer 6.3?
