simple

If a devicenet network is set on your system, you need RsNetworx for devicenet. Use Rsnetworx for controlnet if a controlnet network is set on your system.

Rsnetworx is for configured a devicenet or contronet network.

Look on AB.com ---product directory

Not sure what you're doing, but sounds like all you need is RSLinx. From the configure drivers menu in RSLinx, use the "RS-232 DF-1 Devices" driver for the laptop communication via serial port. Use the "ethernet devices" driver for connecting via ethernet.
