I have an existing application using SLC5/02 and an older operator panel using DH485 communication through 1747-AIC. The operator panel is remotely mounted and is using only three wires on its RS232 port. These wire on 1747-AIC RJ connector are labeled A, B, and Common. The AIC is an older one not the newer1747-AIC plus.
I like to replace that panel with an Allen-Bradley 550 or 600 panel-view using DH485 communication i.e. 2711-B5A2 or 2711-B6C2. But these panel-view come with RJ45 connector like a phone jack.
Does anyone know how to hook up this RJ45 using three existing wires A,B and Com on 1747-AIC. I am trying to avoid pulling a new conduit and new wire for RJ45. Is there any AB panel-view available with DH485 communication but with a three-wire (remote I/O type)connector.
