K sequence Active X alternatives
« on: September 09, 2016, 12:23:46 PM »
In the past I have used a  active x designed by a third part to communicate to DL 06 PLC's via K sequence. Active x's are fast becoming a thing of the past. It worked well over radio, now we have moved on and use cellular networks and linux server, as you know active x and linux dont play well together. I'm looking for an alternative to the activex that will work with linux and keep programming to a minimum.

Are you looking for ways to program the PLC's?
Or is this for data collection?

K-Sequence is a proprietary protocol by Koyo.  You will have to ask AutomationDirect about K-Sequence.

Why not use something open source that utilizes MODBUS as the communications protocol?
