Question

Can my HI 1746WS work in a remote rack to a Control Logix over RIO?  The DHRIO module is in the Control Logix Rack and the 1747-ASB is in the former SLC rack where the 1746WS module resides.

Answer

Yes, you should be able to attached the SLC chassis, with the 1747-ASB module and the HI 1746 WS module, as a remote chassis.  This then allows you to communicate using block transfers with the remote chassis and the HI 1746 WS module.  This has been done using the PLC 5 and you can check out the associated  for information on doing this.
