Ml1200 /paneview 600

I have read plenty of posts regarding the fixed comm port on the ml1200,however I am still not sure if it is possible to connect to a PV600 and use the configurable port for something else.

Think I found my answer,as long as the pv600 can be configured for DF1

The additional communications port (Programmer/HMI Port) enables

two communication devices to be connected to the controller

simultaneously. For example, it provides local connectivity of an

operator interface or programming terminal such as DF1 PanelView

HMI, IBM-compatible personal computer using RSLogix 500

programming software, or 1747-PSD program storage device, and also

allows the primary port (Channel 0) to be connected to either a

network, a modem, or an ASCII device such as a barcode reader or

weigh scale.

Yes, only if your PV600 supports DF1 Full duplex protocol.
