RSLinx unknown Device

Good Day to all,

I am having a problem in setting my PLC shorcut as data source in Factory Talk View 5.1.

I attached the picture for reference.

It seems that our PLC 1756-L5571 was not recognized by the RSLinx Setup in FTV.

But, When I check it in RS Linx, I can see that L5571 has an EDS registered already.

Thank you in advance.

Hello,
I don't think RSLinx ENTERPRISE uses EDS files, only linx classic.

Check out this Tread and see if it helps you out any.

Hi!

Just want to inform you that the problem was resolved by upgrading my ftv 5.1 to its latest version.

Thank you
