Title: ControlLogixNET
Post by: bachphi on June 14, 2018, 01:43:56 PM
I came across this ControlLogixNET, it is an open source project that claims to "interface with Allen-Bradley ControlLogix, CompactLogix, and MicroLogix PLC's" and "also tested to work on Mono!!!!".

Other than that, there is not much of info on how to and a lot of unanswered questions.

Anyway, since it is depends on EIPNET, I downloaded EIPNET and compiled it to get EIPNET.dll.
Next re-add references ( EIPNET, ICommon) in ControlLogixNet project, build it.
Next re-add references( EIPNET, ICommon,ControlLogixNET)in all projects of the Examples folder, build it.
Next , change the Startup solution to a project like SimpleOperations.
Change IP address and path to match, in my case it's a compactlogix so path is just 0.
Run it and read a tag.

Hi bachpi,
Where you able to run it?..

There is no documentation available on how to use it.
Can you share a link where we can get the detailed Documentation.

I've been trying to run it using vb.net but was unable to run it. It use to throw socket error while trying to connect it.

As I indicated, there is not much of any documentation, but if you follow my instruction step by step, you should be able to read a tag. Other than that , I have not done anything.
