Hi,

Currently, I am configuring Redundancy system in one of my project and facing with a problem ( Secondary Module always show DISQ and can’t synchronize with Primary PLC ).

Following are products and versions which I am using in our system.

PLC : 1756-L75 ,

RsLogix 5000 : Rev 21

RsLinx Classic : Rev 3.7

Redundancy Module : 1756-RM/B.

Please refer to attachment pictures for more details of redundancy modules.

I go trough manual and found that I should have RMCT ( Redundancy Module Configuration Tool ) to configure the redundancy module.(Please refer to pix, Manual_RMCT)


But, when I follow the manual , open Rslinx and right click on the module, there is no "Configuration module" , that is why I can't configure the module.

Could anyone please advise how can I get RMCT and its features ?

Thank you,
Min.

minaykha,

If you are using a L75 with the firmware of v21 you cannot use redundancy. The ability to use redundancy ends at v20 on the Allen-Bradley PLCs. Download the Firmware Redundacy kit v20.54 or v20.55 (see the end of my post for a link) either of these downloads should give you all the applicable firmwares that you will need for the processors, redundancy cards, ethernet card etc.

Hope this helps.

Hi Nathan,

Thank and appreciate your respond and info.

I just want to share my experience,
I unchecked "Unicast Connection option" under connection tab in MNET module properties dialogue box.After that, my primary and secondary can synchronize. :)
