Allen-Bradley ControlLogix Unsolicited

Product Overview

The Allen-Bradley ControlLogix Unsolicited driver for KEPServerEX acts as a simulated Allen-Bradley ControlLogix PLC allowing unsolicited communications between KEPServerEX and Allen-Bradley Logix devices, eliminating unnecessary PLC "Read" communications. The driver supports the CIP Data Table Read and Write Messages from the Logix family of controllers. The ControlLogix Unsolicited driver will only transfer data when being read or written to by a Logix master. The data acquisition is automatically optimized by KEPServerEX based on the master demands.

A driver is a software component that enables KEPServerEX to meet the communication requirements of a specific device, system, or other data source. The driver handles all proprietary communications between the data source and KEPServerEX; KEPServerEX handles all OPC or proprietary client communications between the driver and the client application(s).

Drivers may be licensed individually or in suites. Additional drivers can be licensed on demand as connectivity needs evolve. All OPC client interfaces can connect to KEPServerEX without additional charge.
