Can I use the READ_REMOTE EFB to read data from located or unlocated variables in a Premium PLC?


Issue:
Using the READ_REMOTE EFB to read data from unlocated variables in a Premium or Quantum PLC


Product Line:
EcoStruxure Control Expert


Resolution:
Yes. The READ_REMOTE block will read data from a remote Unity Premium PLC. In the Premium PLC, Data dictionary must be enabled. And in the M340 or M580 PLC where the READ_REMOTE block reside, the second word of the CTRL pin of the READ_REMOTE block must have a value of 1
