Hi! I have an almost 20 year old AB SLC 500 PLC (fixed i/o, 40 points). It uses a 1747-AIC DH-485 Link Coupler over a 100 meter communication cable (A, B, Common) to a 1761-NET-AIC module that connects to a pc by RS-232. The pc is running rslinx using the 1747-PIC/AIC+ driver. The version of rslinx I have only works on Windows XP SP2, which I would like to upgrade to a pc with Windows 7 or newer. I downloaded a free version of rslinx but it does not include the above driver. It seems most posts I have seen refer to a UIC driver. I tried that with the above hardware setup and it did not work. I would appreciate any suggestions other than replacing the PLC! My pc running rslinx is located 100 meters from the SLC 500 PLC. Thank you all for your time!
