Controllogix version of 1763-NC01

Hi.
I need to connect the serial port of a ControlLogix PLC (DB9) to a serial port of a Kingfisher telemetry unit (RJ45 style plug) It is easy to do with a micrologix unit as I can use the 1763-NC01 unit. Does Rockwell make a DB9 breakout cable as such or are there adaptors/cables to do this function.
Regards Alan Case

I've done this by just cutting the end off a serial cable and putting a rj45 connector on.
(note: not to connect to a kingfisher unit, i was talking to a perle)

You can buy adapters, see link below.

You will need to know the pin-out though.

The 1763-NC01 breaks our the RS485 connections from the Micrologix 8 pin DIN port. The 9 pin serial connection on the ControlLogix does not have RS485 pins. Does the Kingfisher unit use RS232 or RS485? Also - what protocol will you be using? The Micrologix have Modbus RTU available. The ControlLogix do not have it natively.

Hi.
The kingfisher has the ability to talk DF1 half duplex so 232 comms needed.
