Cheers,

I hope NOT!!!

The SLC5/03 does have an ethernet port its a DH485 port. Do not plug it in to your PC's ethernet port. ( if thats what you were going to do.) You will damage your PC/Laptop.
To use the DH485 port you need a 1747-PIC or a 1747-UIC ( USB to DH485 converter)
See PDF's below

Well thats just DUCKY! Yes, fom PLC dir. to ethernet port on PC. Should have known better with this Rockwell stuff Ya have to have some kind of $5000.00 convertor, silly me!
 
Check your PC's ethernet port you may have damaged it.

Your best bet is the UIC. Price not all that bad

Correction to the above statment: (typo insert not)
The SLC5/03 does NOT have a ethernet port.
 
Yea Mickey
It's all coming back to me now--- I was going to say, I thought ethernet is 05' and that PIC was for PARALLEL ports------ON 504 DH+ Could I go straight between PLC and PC? and what would the processor config. be? ie: Channel config: CH0-1 USER - CH-1 SYS. on line HELP does not explan SEtups. Can you explain?
Read the document you posted, spot on! Anything re: DH+ qeustion? And FINALLY------ For some reason, My Linx Workstation Icons changed from a PC and proceeor, to (2) Globes?
What's with this?
Thanks MICKEY, You RULE!

See my post number 9. You can go straight from PC to SLC5/04's Channel 0
serial port. You will need a null modem cable. Leave Channel 0 set for system mode.
You cannot go straight to the DH+ port from you PC. (see post 9)

See pic's below for the SLC5/04 default settings. Be advised channel 0 can be configured for DH485. Do you have the offline file to check its setting?
