RSLinx Classic Gateway
RSLinx Classic Gateway extends RSLinx Classic-based communication throughout the enterprise by connecting clients over TCP/IP networks. Programming and configuration products such as RSLogix and RSNetWorx use a local RSLinx Classic Lite or better with a Remote Devices via RSLinx Gateway driver configured to communicate to the RSLinx Classic Gateway. Remote HMIs and VB/VBA applications including Microsoft Office can use remote OPC to communicate to RSLinx Classic Gateway for data collection. This allows you to have multiple distributed computers performing data collection without having RSLinx Classic installed on each machine!
RSLinx Classic Gateway offers remote connectivity to:
- Multiple RSView32 clients accessing data through one RSLinx Classic Gateway (remote OPC).
- Remote computer running RSLogix connecting to a plant network over a modem for online program changes.
- Remote Microsoft Office applications displaying plant floor data such as Excel.
- A web page displaying plant floor data when the web server and RSLinx Classic are on separate computers.
