text: <s>[INST] PANEL VIEW TO ULTRA 3000i WE HAVE SOME ULTRA 3000i SERVO DRIVES CONTROLLED WITH A QUARTECH TERMINALS, IN THE SAME MACHINE WE HAVE A SLC-5/04 WITH A STANDARD PANEL VIEW 1000, CAN WE USE THESE FOR CONTROL THE ULTRA 3000i AND REMOVE THE QUARTECH TERMINAL? [/INST] You may send commands to Ultra 3000 using Host Commands from the SLC serial port.RS-232 port should be configured to use ASCII. The host language is not so easy to use from inside a PLC...you may need to spend long time to write the host protocol logic. :smileysad:The host protocol is used easier from inside UltraWare, and also used by operator interfaces from Quartech like you had, but is difficult to use from the serial port of an SLC. Using the DeviceNet version of the Ultra 3000i, you might realize the communication easier, through an SLC Devicenet scanner 1747-SDN. Anyway there are some docs and an example for SLC controller... Aid 22657 contains all this stuff. Be aware it is a TechConnect users reserved document... if you cannot get it, please send me a Private Message here in the Forum with your e-mail address, I'll send you back some docs...Take also a look to the Host Command Reference Manual. Hope this helps… - fuzzy logic \\n </s>
