alarsen Member OP A Join Date Sep 2010 Location Denmark Posts 12 Sep 3, 2011 #3 thank you. I have no rs 232 port on my PC. Can I use a usb to rs 232 converter. And which driver should I use in RSLinx?

And which driver should I use in RSLinx? Click to expand... Yes a USB to Serial adapter will work. A good one is the "Keyspan" USA- HS19 See link below http://www.ind-concepts.com/CommunicationData.htm As long as the RS232 port on your PV is NOT configured for a printer then the DF1 driver should work. Another method to upload/download your PV's program is a memory card, see PDF below. Last edited: Sep 3, 2011
