I have a PLC5/08 hanging off a DH+ network which also has DHRIO/ENBT gateway on it. I want to add a Micrologix or SLC5/05 on the same ethernet network as the gateway and be able to MSG the PLC5/08. Is this possible without a controller in the gateway?
 
No, you do not need a controller; just make sure the gateway ENBT is addressed within the same subnet as the ML or SLC 5/05 CPU Ethernet ports and the PLC5 Channel 1A Link ID is the same as the 1756-DHRIO DH+ Channel one.
