Reusing CC-Link Network with Allen Bradley PLC

[DrDrreeeaaa]

Hi All

I'm desperately after a product that will let me reuse my existing CC-Link network with a new allen bradley PLC

The A-series PLC is being replaced, and the CC-link master card is going with it, so I need a product for the AB that can act as the CC-Link master for the network

Any ideas?

I know this is a very hard ask and in pre-empting what will be the response many of you give me I have recommended that the client replaces the whole thing with Devicenet/EthernetIP however as part of my due diligence I need to explore this option and I think it may be valuable for future users of this forum as CC-link is around to stay and it is suppoedly an open protocol

Cheers

Michael
