FactoryTalk SE server and AdvancedHMI in same PC talking to CompactLogix

[ShriramPendse]

Hello Archie ,

Would following configuration work ?

I had CompactLogix L32e PLC and  FactoryTalk SE 25 Screen SCADA connected with Ethernet/IP . Both working OK .
On same PC I tested AdvancedHMI on ethernet/IP driver to read/write tags with L32E , works OK (when SE SCADA was not installed yet).

Since customer has purchased only SE and no SQL or Vantage point , I was finding a way out . Every few seconds , I would read few tags from L32E into AdvancedHMI and then INSERT these into SQL table .
Since AdvnacedHMI and SE Scada would be Clients to same L32E , would it be a problem ?
With SE RT licence , RSLinx OPC is not provided else it would have been much easier .

Thanks ,

Yes, RSLinx and AdvancedHMI can work concurrently on the same PC, so there should be no problem with SE and AdvancedHMI working simultaneously and communicating to the same PLC.

Thanks a lot .
