Hi , Does anyone know if you can have 2 plc's connected to your computer via 2 seperate comm ports and use Advanced HMI, with controls on the form for each PLC.I have tried this by selecting DF1comm1 & DF1comm2 but you cannot select different com ports in the properties box.Can anyone help?

The best place to post this question is on the AdvancedHMI Thread. Archie, and some of the other members on the Thread are best equipped to answer your question.

Have a look at this Thread, there may be some clues:
