Is it possible for a PC to access the AB Micrologix 1200 through the Red Lion 306's USB or TCP port. It's a bother swapping the serial cable of the ML1200 between the PC and the 306 HMI every time we need to make a change to the PLC.
I am hoping the RedLion has some way to pass through the serial protocol allowing me to use TCP or USB to connect to both units.
We use USB to talk to update the 306 HMI. The 306 then talks to the ML1200 with the serial cable.
Your thoughts appreciated.
