Any talk of getting Kepware to "pick up" a D-More driver for Kepserver EX
-
Better for you to complain to Kepware to make that happen.

This.
Barring that, both DL and Modbus should work.

They (Kepware) had a form awhile back asking about interest in a Do-More driver which I filled out. Maybe I was the only one.

Yeah I currently use modbus, but I'm lazy and want the easy button

By the way I noticed I am a Sr. Member - how did you all know my age? LOL

Crud, I thought Modbus WAS the easy button. Not much easier than Modbus.

They sell an AutomationDirect Suite. Does the Domore Driver use the DirectNet Protocol with Different memory areas? It didn't take long for Redlion to add Domore support. Couldn't be that hard, all Kepware needs is convincing. Have you tried persistent whinyness? It works with some vendors ;) .

I filled out the interest form again for Do-More Driver for KepserverEX a couple of days ago, and am doing a webEx with Kepware on the 13th regarding this. Whining must work, or least they are listening, whether they create a driver or not.

With the new hardware coming, there will be a significant increase in volume. It might be more attractive to them then.

I don't think they would have to create a new driver, just update the existing one.

If they are going to support Do-more it is a new driver. Do-more memories (other than guest memories) are only accessible through Do-more's proprietary programming protocol, which bears zero resemblance to anything they currently support.

If Kepware charged separately for an EBC driver, then it is probably going to be another $1000 or more.

Was hoping it would just "added" to the Automation Direct Suite which I already have, and it would only be a free update for owners of the suite. Probably wishful thinking.

And that is certainly possible. Just explaining to the group that it isn't as simple as new memory ranges for DL.
Of course the existing DL and Modbus ranges work fine on Do-more, but don't allow access to the entire controller.
