Good morning, Guys:
I have maybe stupid question about RSLinx Classic, I saw so many devices showed red cross mark in RSLINX in VM where Studio 5000 and RSlinx classic installed in our VPN, but those devices are physical working fine in the machine in our plant.
I remembered a while ago I installed CCW in that VM,since CCW asked to install RSLinx, so i just installed everything CCW wants, later the RSLINX showed empty (no device connected), then i started to add all PLC controllers in RSLinx. all PLC controllers showed good icon without yellow question mark, but when i added some devices in RSLinx, they showed unrecognized device with red cross mark.
I think i can fix that problem by adding EDS file for those device showing red cross mark.
My question is those red cross mark really give the communication issue or not?
thanks!
