Hi all,
I am an amateur PLC user. I am using a Compactlogix L35E.
Some time in the past week, the I/O light began blinking green. Whereas previously it was solid green.
When i attempted to communicate with it over the LAN, i could not establish communication with the PLC. So i connected using an RS232 crossover cable.
I am able to communicate, go online, modify routines, download new programs, upload exising programs, using the RS232.
This said, my RSLinx is not able to see the Ethernet IP module. My RSLogix 5000 is not able to see the module. There is a Yellow fault symbol above sitting abovewhere the Ethernet IP module is represented on the backplane, found along the side panel of RSLogix.
I am currently running V16 Firmware.
I would appreciate any ideas as to how i can re establish communication.
