THE CHANGE - Three persons, including myself were recently moved into the Engineering Dept from Maintenance and elsewhere and assigned work which required us to use RSLinx Gateway as well. It was working fine providing RSlinx Gateway Licenses to those with a need to perfrom DDE/OPC tasks with PLCs.
THE BACKGROUND - Our Facility has been AB/Rockwell for as long as I have worked here, and when Factory Talk Activation came out we migrated all our licenses to it. Since I learned this the HARD way, please allow me to share and hopefully prevent someone else from suffering the same fate.
