Lets clarify what PLC or SLC you have first. There is no such thing as a PLC5/04 there is a SLC5/04 that requires RSLogix500 to program it.
RSlogix5 is used to program a PLC5/11,20,30,40,60,80.
In RSLinx the DF1 driver should get you connected.

Sorry, It's PLC5/40. Thank you mickey, according your attached files. I should use null modum crossover 25 pin cable to plc5/40 ch0. I just wonder why in the offline program, it says "Full Duplex Modem" in Control line item of channel 0. Does it used to communicate with other host with modem?

If its not connected to a modem now , it could be it once was.

Use the serial port. Connect your laptop using the null-modem cable. Follow the PDF I gave you. RsLinx, DF1 driver click autoconfigure and it should connect. You can then change the port configuration after you get online ,if you like. DH+ connection will require extra equipment ( PCMCIA card, KF2 Box stuff like that)
