Hey guys,
The local district bought their own laptop so they can have all of their PLC programs on it and have a mobile laptop that can go around and connect to each PLC. I pushed them in this direction for the fact it was needed and makes sense for them. They hired someone to install RSLogix 5000 and RSLogix 500 on it as well as RSLinx.
The idea was to use the licenses for RSLogix 5000 and 500 off the HMI stations and transfer them to the laptop. He downloaded Windows 7-64 bit version and it doesn't seem to be compatible with 500 or 5000. I get the message:
The program or feature "\??\C:\programfiles (x86)\rockwellsoftware etc cannot start or run de to the incompatibility with 64 bit version of Windows.
Do I need to install a different version of windows to make this work?
Thanks,
Brian
Edit** the laptop is a dell latitudeE5570 intel (R) core (TM) i5-6440HQ CPU 2.60 Ghz
8.00 GB 64 bit operating system
