We have a PLC-5/40 and a Micrologix 1500 LSP. I want to transfer some data from the ML1500 to registers in the PLC-5. We currently own a 1785-KA5/B DH+ to DH485 adapter module, as well as a 1761 NET AIC. Will it work moving data from the Micro to the PLC-5 using this hardware? So far the only A-B communication networks I have worked with are DH+ and Remote I/O. The manual for the NET AIC converter shows many ways to connect to DH-485, but nothing for PLC-5 communication. I set up a test network on the bench using a spare 5/40, ML1500, the KA5, and the NET AIC. I went online with the PLC-5, and in Linx I could see the adapter module along with the AIC, but not the 1500. I'm not sure what needs to happen to get the data moving.
