How to establish communication with a CompactLogix PLC - Weintek HMI

Within this tutorial, we first demonstrate how to add the appropriate driver for a CompactLogix within Easy Builder Pro. Then we explain how to export and then import tags from your Studio 5000 project.



If you are using an outdated version of Studio 5000 that does not support *.L5X export, please note:
It is not possible to import Remote IO tags through CSV
It is not possible to import Alias tags through CSV
UDTs must be configured using the structure editor.
See tutorial:    • Using Structure Editor to correct UDT...
