Title: daqconnect
Post by: JRussell on December 23, 2011, 08:07:49 AM

Hi
I am interested in using a F16 plc without a local computer. Daqfactory makes  Daqbridge which is a standalone Modbus master that queries a PLC and uploads data to Daqconnect, on online server. Will this work without the need for the TLserver running on a local computer?

If the Modbus master you refer to can collect data from the PLC via Modbus/TCP protocol (Ethernet) then you don't need a TLServer running on a PC, since all Nano-10, FMD or F-series PLC have built-in Ethernet port and Modbus/TCP server.  The PLC can accept up to 5 simultaneous Modbus/TCP connection.
