I'm working to possibly control a Schneider Electric M258 Logic Controller with LabVIEW. I was planning on using SoMachine software (to connect directly to the PLC) to access the command code libraries that the logic controller uses to alter heaters, pistons, etc. Then, I would employ those command codes through various sub-VIs in LabVIEW to have the ability to control those heaters as well. After speaking with a Schneider Electric representative, he does not think LabVIEW will be able to employ these command codes to communicate with the logic controller. Has anyone used SoMachine before? Anyone think why LabVIEW would or would not be able to control the logic controller with those command codes?
