You have a couple of options to get rid of the question mark on the RSLinx for the Ethernet Card.

You can try Right Clicking it, and see if Upload EDS is an option.

You can go to AB and Download the EDS and Import it into RSLinx.

After you have resolved that, you can try and re-establish Communications with the PanelView Plus. The PV+ has its own version of RSLinx, and you will have to sort that out. You might need to rebuild the MER Files, and Download it to the PanelView Plus again. Someone with more experience with the PV+ should be able to help you with that.
