Hey all
Question, I am trying to connect a lappie to a plc 5/15 via a pcmk card. I have tried to configure in rs linx (2.40) and have moderate success.
The plc's are part of a network scheme that they had setup at one time, but now I can't connect remotely with the one I am tapped into. For example, I am seeing the other 2 systems networked on nodes 1 and 2, but unable to find the third one. I would guess with the scheme they used, that it should be node 3, but rs linx will not find it. I have not tried to remotely connect with the other 2 setups, nor am I able to see them online in real time in remote run.
Hopefully, this is a simple question, I'm not real swift on the plc 5 series and connectivity. Is there something that I am overlooking? Is there a physical way to see what node they setup?
Please, start with some basics and I'll decipher from there, thanx in advance to all you gurus!
