Can the M580 communicate with an Allen Bradley PLC and pull tag information?
Issue
Allen Bradley communications

Product Line
Modicon M580

Environment
Control Expert
Unity Pro

Resolution
The M580 can send an explicit Ethernet IP message to a Contrologix PLC as long as it is sent to an Ethernet/IP object that supports being read or written.
Note: You will need to talk to the Contrologix PLC support on what Ethernet/IP objects a remote Ethernet/IP Scanner device can read or write.

Contrologix PLCs can read and write each others Tag database via Ethernet/IP using the proprietary Client Server Protocol ("CSP") protocol, with embedded PCCC  (Programmable Controller Communication Commands) commands. This Ethernet/IP (CSP/PCCC) protocol is a proprietary implementation of Ethernet/IP and Schneider Electric does not have access to it.
