There are 2 ways to connect to the Controllogix processor. • Ethernet IP (which requires you to purchase either an EZ-T10C-FSE or an EZ-T15C-FSE model panel). • Connect via DF1 protocol. However, you will have to create an address list in the Controllogix processor that mimics the SLC or PLC 5 DF1 addressing scheme. There is an AB APP NOTE on Allen Bradley’s website that explains how to do create an address list. It does not directly pertain to the EZ Touch panels. It is just an example.
