edit: Oh, I think you were referring to MicroLogix 1000? Can you type the text of the error and describe what you see in the image. I'm not much of an unknown link clicker from a first time poster. No offense. (maybe someone is more bold than I)

Hi thanks.

Yes I am referring MicroLogix 1000.
There in no error message,but in the windows of the comunication, at left appears AB_DF1-1 and no appears nothing.
 
Just be clear on what you have and what does what.

Your cable should be a 1761-CBL-PM02 or equivalent.

If your computer has a real serial port then this is a straight connection.

If not, then you need a suitable USB to Serial adapter to attach to the above cable.

RSLinx Classic Lite is just a communication tool. It will establish a connection to the controller through the AB_DF1-1 driver which you appear to have created. This will allow you to go online with controllers and perform an Upload or Download of programs via the programming software.

The RSLogix Micro Starter Lite software is the free programming software for the MicroLogix 1000 and 1100 controllers.

Note Well: For Allen Bradley controllers...

When you perform a "Download", this is sending a copy of the program from your computer to the controller memory.

When you perform an "Upload", this is receiving a copy of the program from the controller memory to your computer.

Regards,
George
