Last updated 04/14/2014 11:17 AM

Question

I have a HI 2151/20WC, a HI 2151/30WC, and a HI 2110WI and would like to communicate to a Allen Bradley PLC-5. What options are available to accomplish this?

Answer

The  HI 2151/30WC, and HI 2110WI have several options available to get weight data to the PLC-5. These include:

1. A/B RIO option for bidirectional communications using discrete and block transfers to the Remote I/O scanner.

2. Analog output to transfer weight data to the PLC as voltage or current levels.

3. BCD output.

4. Serial port. (NOT AVAILABLE ON HI 2110WI)

The HI 2151/20WC is obsolete is and no longer supported.
