CPX-E-EP x1 + CLogix + EthIP + 16DI.8DO.4AI.4AO + GEN + Status Bits & Explicit Messaging

This video describes how to connect from a Festo CPX-E-EP terminal to an Allen Bradley ControlLogix or CompactLogix PLC. Additionally, diagnostic methods are described with emphasis on using Status bits and Explicit Messaging. The purpose is an attempt to help you accelerate the programming and commissioning of your application using Festo CPX-E-EP. The control method is EtherNet/IP Fieldbus. The Rockwell sample code is programmed with RSLogix5000 V20 (Version) software. Additional software (Festo Automation Suite, Festo Field Device Tool, Festo Maintenance Tool Software) used to configure, and commission are also discussed.
