What is the best way to have a ControlLogix processor talk to P3000 I/O? The system currently has a main rack w/ a P3-550 CPU. It is talking to several racks via P3-RX I/O adapters. It is also talking to GS2 drives via GS-EDRV100 modules. The Client mandates the ControlLogix processor. Existing I/O is OK to keep using. Do the RX scanners talk Modbus TCP? I'm thinking a HMS Anybus adapter would work if that is the case. If they don't, do I use the 550 CPU as an Ethernet/IP adapter and map the I/O? Thanks, Tony

I would use the 550 as ethernetip adapter to the ab.
