Data exchange technique between PLC S7 and PLC Rockwell Automation

The data exchange technique between PLC S7 and PLC Rockwell Automation lines uses a client-server mechanism, in which PLC Rockwell acts as an Ethernet/IP server and PLC S7 acts as a client.

With this technique, users do not need to affect the configuration, data structure or program of the Rockwell PLC. The prerequisite is to know the tag name and data type of the tag that needs to collect data on the Rockwell PLC.

With the goal of expanding the existing control system using Rockwell PLC, the solution of integrating PLC S7-1500 or S7-1200 to collect data from existing distributed control systems and monitor via SCADA WinCC V7 / Professional / Unified is flexible and highly effective.
