We are about to procure the following version of TIA Portal v13 as suggested by our SI. 

WinCC SCADA Runtime Advanced V13 , 128 Power Tags.

We wish to know if it has in-built drivers to communicate with Allen Bradley PLC (Micrologix 1400)

Or do we need to install some extra patches.

Regards,

Sudhir.

Hi,

the Micrologicx 1400 is supportetd by WinCC Professional.
I think it should work with WinCC Advanced, too, according to the manual:

• Allen-Bradley
  • - Allen-Bradley EtherNet/IP
  • - Allen-Bradley DF1
• Mitsubishi
  • - Mitsubishi MC TCP/IP
  • - Mitsubishi FX
• Modicon Modbus
  • - Modicon Modbus TCP/IP
  • - Modicon Modbus RTU
• Omron
  • - Omron Host Link

The following communication drivers are supported for RT Professional:

• Allen-Bradley
  • - Allen-Bradley EtherNet/IP
• Mitsubishi
  • - Mitsubishi MC TCP/IP
• Modicon Modbus
  • - Modicon Modbus TCP

Connections between HMI devices and other PLCs

You configure the connections between HMI devices and other PLCs in the "Connections" editor of the HMI device. These connections are non-integrated connections.
