PM856A connect to PP210
Hi
Project scope:
Update an old PM210 PLC and an old PP210 panel.
First phase is migration of the old PLC to new PM856A. Second phase is install new panel and more logic etc in PLC.
I wonder if a new PM856A can communicate with an old panel PP210 via COMLI protocol?
If it can it means we can install the new PLC and use the old panel as before. Not much work and plant can run as before.
The new panel and additional sw for the PLC can be developed off site.

Hi,
We realized a few projects in the past with PM856 and old PP2xx panles, last one with PP235 Process Panel 235.
We used COMLI in that projects between the panel and CPU
So I think YES - you can still use COMLI and connect PM856 to PP210. Just need to know the mapping of addresses in PP210
