Hello;
According to the Siemens manual for the OP 17, DF1 is an available down-loadable protocol. You will probably have to purchase this protocol from Siemens.
The URL for the manual is:

If you have one of the later versions of Protool, then the protocols "Allen Bradley DF1 PLC5" and "Allen Bradley DF1 SLC500" will be available (no need to purchase).
You probably have to use the PLC5 variant and map tags in the ControlLogix as PLC5 tags.
