I am trying to upload a program from a panelview 600, using a 2711-nc13 cable. I have rslinx set on 1747-pic. When rslinx searches for the panel view it can't find it. Could someone please tell me what i am doing wrong. Thanks in advance.
 
I believe that one has two DB-9 ports; one for comms and the other for printing. You can only upload/download over the port labeled DH-485 on this model and not via the Printer port. Make sure you are connected to the right comm port.
 
Effective use of ab.com

Since I don't know much about the PIC, I will defer to the WWW...

It is the quick entry deep into rockwell automation and allen bradley manuals.

even if the part number is not formatted correctly, the search engine will give you a list of hints and you can drill your way right down to links to all pertinent manuals on pdf, drawings in several formats, pricing information, and then back your way out through the MODIFY button.

Your part number took me here next:

No links to supporting documents, but it is a DH485 panelview.

Do you have a copy of the application that is currently running in it?

You can check the configuration of the application for how the other comm port is set up.

Okay, at ab.com, paste that p/n into their literature home and knowledgebase...i think there is a way to force the config screen to view/edit port settings...

Page 64 Applying Power and Resetting Terminal

Find "configuration screen"

Here is the goodies:

Reset the Terminal
Resetting the terminal re-initializes the PanelView terminal (same as
cycling power).
Follow these steps to reset the PV300, PV300 Micro, PV550 (keypad,
keypad and touch) or the PV600 (keypad, keypad and touch)
terminals.
Simultaneously press the Left arrow , Right arrow , and Enter
keys. The terminal performs its powerup sequence.
The sequence in which keys are pressed (while running an
application), determines what appears after the reset.
If you press the Left and Right arrow keys before the Enter
key, the Configuration Mode menu appears.
If you press the Enter ↵ key before the arrow keys, the terminal
runs the loaded application.
Follow these steps to reset the PV550 and PV600 (touch only)/
PV900/PV1000/PV1400 terminals.
1.
Use a narrow, non-conductive tool to press the reset button.
The terminal performs its powerup sequence.
TIP
If the Left or Right arrow keys on the PanelView 300
Micro are assigned as function keys, you must use the GoTo
Configuration Screen button.
ATTENTION
Use a nonconducting object to press the Reset button. Do
not use a conducting object such as a paper clip that may
damage the terminal. Do not use the tip of a pencil;
graphite may damage the terminal. The normally-open,
momentarily-closed Reset button is designed for only 1.3 N
(0.29 lb) operating force. Use of excessive force may
damage the button or cause it to stick.
On the PV550/PV600 touch screen terminals, the Reset button is on the right, below the Memory Card slot.
