For this new unit, we are leaning toward a VME chassis with a Power PC processor. [TJNAF's Matthew Bickley speaks highly of their Motorola MVME2700s with VMIC I/O cards.] So....the missing link is a way to speak to our A-B PLCs. We [believe we] want to communicate over Ethernet between the IOC and A-B PLC. 1) Does anyone have similar systems running in this configuration? [I was told SNS did this, but am not certain.] --Could you recommend hardware? --Would you share available drivers? 2) Any recommendations or comments regarding our tentative choice of VME hardware? --Power PCs in general and the MVME2700 in particular? --other vendor recommendations for I/O cards? Since this first unit is likely the first step toward a migration path for our other IOCs, we'd like to start off on the right foot! Thanks. Paul M. Morris [email protected]
