Hello All,
I have a query reagrding a SST-PFB-PLC5 card that I am trying to use with an AB PLC5-40E.
I can connect to the card using Hyperterminal but when I try to go online with the SST Profibus Configuration Tool (v3.8), i get the message - "serial communication failure".
It is not a new card but a spare that I using for some tests. I have tried the same method to connect to an exisiting working unit in the plant with the same results.
Can anyone give me a "for dummies" walkthrough of how to talk to this device, as I obviously am doing something wrong.
Many thanks,
Shaun.
