Hi All,

We have a PanelView 600 -- 2711-B6C2, USB to DH485 converter -- 1747-UIC, and DH cable -- 1747-C13. I've installed the drivers for the converter and configured the driver in RSLinx(followed the instructions in the manual).

The PV 600 is brand new from the box, I'm attempting to set up communications with it via laptop. On the 1747-UIC, USB and OK LEDs are solid green, but nothing from the DH485 side. On the PV 600 itself, both Comm and Fault lights are flashing. I've matched up the Comm settings, tried changing the Node # in the PV, and Station # in the driver settings in RSLinx.

What am I missing here? Thanx in advance for your time and insight!
 
Double check the comm port the UIC took under windows device manager.
Then match this in RSLinx.
The baud rate must match. The node addresses must be different.
If possible post a screen shot of of your RSLinx set-up.
 
Success

This morning I was able to upload a program from a PV we have on a machine. Then when I hooked up to the new unit, everything went smooth. I guess chalk it up to being a Monday...
