I've been resurrecting an older machine from 2005 and have had good success with help from the forum. Got connected to the PLC and was able to test I/O, so thanks!
Now I'm trying to connect to a TotalControl QuickPanel and have a few questions. First, can anyone provide the trial copy of QuickDesigner 3.7? It was circulating in a few threads a couple years ago, but the links are broken. I have prepared both windows 2000 and windows XP VMs to try to install it.
The panel has a Modbus Plus communications adapter shown in the image below, which is how it communicates with a SE quantum PLC. This is in addition to two serial ports, a D and a micro port, as well as an ethernet. Which of these communications methods should I be trying to connect with? Can I use the standard comms even with the modbus plus adapter installed?
My goal is to try to backup the HMI program, and possibly modify it.
Thanks for your time.
