Delta PLC Communication
Hi,
I am using DELTA PLC. I want to pick up the hi speed counter value from PLC. The data I am getting on Modscan software. But how should I get the data in vb 6.0?

Presently I am breaking my head on this same topic. Delta connects on Modbus OPC, so thru this you can get data in VB. It is also possible to link using DVP protocol developed by Delta which is closely simmilar to Modbus. I could read/write on this protocol thru Hyper terminal. Now next step is thru VB.
Read Delta PLC's protocol document and InTouch connectivity document ( Available on Delta's site for free download). If you successfully do this pls inform me too.
Thanks and regards,
Shriram Pendse
