Hi, I’m trying to connect into Line 4 PLC which connection path would i use? Ive tried a few but struggling to get it to connect.
Many thanks,
maybe
172.16.14.60,1,1,4
Looking at the manual Allen Bradley Connection Paths | Ignition User Manual
It looks like it should be
1,1,2,4
You would use the AB Driver and the host name is 172.16.14.60.
1 - Go to backplane
1 - Go to slot 1
2 - Go out CH A
4 - Go to Node 4
It's been a hot minute since I've had to do this though. Post up any errors you get and that'll help us help you.
Ive tried that and it says “Connected” But looking in the tag browser i cant see annything!
Also thank you for your help!
Can you show a screen shot of how you have the device setup?

Attached above, Sorry ignition is new to me!
What driver did you use? It looks like you used the Logix driver. You should change it for the SLC driver.
See this part of the manual: Connecting to SLC | Ignition User Manual

Thank you! That cured that issue, Another i want to connect to is
But it seems its on another protocol, how would i go about that?
Many thanks for your help!
That's still a SLC, it's just not on DH+
Use 172.16.14.60 as the hostname, and 1,4,2,192.168.10.18 as the connection path.
1 = Go To Backplane
4 = Go To Slot 4 (ENBT)
2 = Go Out Ethernet Port
192.168.10.18 = Go to this IP address
