Good afternoon,
Am having a couple of problems trying to setup a compactlogix L23E QB1B, and a PanelView Plus 600.
I've changed IP addresses in all parties involved and can see everything in RSlinx, and go online to the controller. I've setup Factory Talk to the best of my abilities as far as design and runtime communication settings. I found the processor and set the path in Design, and then also set the path to the processor for the Runtime. I thought originally, under design, you need to set the path to the PLC, and in Runtime, need to set the path to the Panelview.. however it would not let me select the panelview as a path under runtime, but would let me set the path to the processor. Does the PLC need to be selected for both?
I ask because when I search for tags in factory talk view, I can't see any tags from the processor, only Date, Time, month, year, etc. I tried refreshing, saving the program etc. with no luck. I guess I'm not quite sure how to assign tags in Factory Talk.
Secondly, and I'm not sure if this is a connected issue, but when I go online with the PLC it show's the two embedded I/O modules and "bus" to have a minor fault. The fault reads:
1/16/1998 2:44:13 PM
(Type 03) Unknown fault
(Code 00) Unknown fault.

Not sure what that fault is about. Any info that could point me in the right direction on either of these issues would be greatly appreciated. Sorry if I left out any pertinent information.
Thank you in advance.
