My company laptop has RS5000 and a RS500 Starter Kit loaded in it.
We have several production machines with Micrologix 1000, 1500 and
SLC 500. My question is can I upload into the Starter Kit RS500 or
The RS5000 environment? I realize I would have to switch an RS5000
controller to Program when uploading , but question if I have to do the same with a SLC500 or Micrologix controller. (We lost the "good"
laptop to a 10 foot drop on the floor!)
Another Question deals with the AICs attached in the Panels. We use these to access the controllers with our laptop. A question has come up, can
we use the existing DH485 ports on these AICs to take our data to a central PC for monitoring. Is DH485 fast enough or should we go with
the AIC with Ethernet capabilities?
Thanks for your help. Beaumack
