We are in the process of trying to upgrade from 1336plus drives w/GM1 RIO to PF70 and 20commR.
After 3 days of research I finally got to bench test a small set up using a PLC5/40, PF70 and a 20comm RIO. I can't get it to work.
The code has no BTW/R just logic command/status.
Example: O:122-Logic command
O:123-Speed reference
I:122-Status
I'm sure that I have all switches on the RIO set correctly. I/O config looks...well I'm having doubts. Channel config 1B should be good and I've set the parameters in the drive to DPI PORT 5.
I have solid green LED's on the processor for channel 1B and solid green for PORT, MOD and NET A on the RIO. (NET B is blank)and the PF70 status LED is blinking green.
Please don't tell me that I have to add BTW/R's to the code because I've never used them.
Whatever you can throw at me to try would be greatly appreciated. even if it's just: HAVE YOU CHECKED THE CABLING?
Thank you in advance
