Has anyone interfaced a PLC to a CAN-Bus network? I see more and more CAN-Bus networking being used in the automotive and resently aftermarket automotive industry. Trevor

    Allen-Bradley's Devicenet is a modified form of CAN-Bus

    In AutomationDirece the F4-SDS module also utilizes a modified CAN-Bus.
