mitchb6 Posted February 7, 2020 Report Share Posted February 7, 2020 Hello, I have a project connecting some new I/O to a vision 350 through an EX-RC1. The Vision 350 will then transfer some of the data to a Vision 1040 PLC. In the project it will be a EX-RC1 -> IO-AI4-AO2 ->IO-DI16 on one den rail in a panel. I believe all I need is some devicenet cables to connect the EX-RC1 -> Vision350 PLC -> Vision1040 to communicate through CANbus. Would there be any other hardware or items required besides power wires and the programming cable for the 1040 and 350? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MVP 2023 Flex727 Posted February 7, 2020 MVP 2023 Report Share Posted February 7, 2020 How far away is the I/O from the PLC? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mitchb6 Posted February 7, 2020 Author Report Share Posted February 7, 2020 The distance I believe is within the 1000 meter limit of the EX-RC1. The project distance is unknown at the moment though. In the case that it is over would I use another EX-RC1 to boost the signal to the PLC? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
