ASComm.NET Allen-Bradley PLC Software, Legacy Ethernet Driver, is a communications library that enables your .NET Framework application to read and write registers on A-B MicroLogix, SLC500, and PLC5 without PLC program modifications and without OPC.
Use Visual Basic, C#, C++, and ASP.NET to create HMI, SCADA, data logging, and IIoT applications targeting Win Forms, WPF, Web, console, service, and Linux.
Powerful pre-built example applications with VB and C# source code included in development package.
Runtime-free for qualified applications
For developers who need to build deployable applications.
One development license is required for each development seat.
For multiple developers, consider Team Edition licensing.
Projects built with a Developer Edition License generate an embedded runtime license which is embedded into your executable assembly.
The embedded runtime license system eliminates the need for license activation steps on runtime PCs.

For developers and/or end users who need to build and/or run on a single PC.
Machine Edition Licenses cannot be used to build deployable applications.
Projects built with a Machine Edition License do not generate an embedded runtime license. Instead, ASComm.NET will look for a physical license file on the PC.
