Panelview to Control Logix via DH+ 

I am going from a Panelview600 using DH+, going through a 1756-DH/RIO card to a 1756-L63 Contrologix processor. This project was passed off to me and the tags were set up in with the tag address the same as the tag name. When I try to validate, i get the error "tag address is invalid for tag name". Tag Name is 'SEQUENCE_EN' and tag address is the same.

Re: Panelview to Control Logix via DH+ 
Using DH+, the PV600 must address PLC tags via the PLC5/SLC classic addressing files integer N, real F and discrete B. DH+ protocol does not support Contrologix tagnames. In contrologix an SLC/PLC mapping table is required to map classic addresses to contrologix tagnames. You may be better off switching the PV600 to an ethernet version that supports Contrologix tagnames
