Hello fellows,
I am fairly new to plc's, and I have encounter a problem trying to interface with a SLC 500 unit. I am using and interface converter (1747-PIC)in order to communicate with the plc,and I am using 1747-PIC/AIC+Driver, as a driver in RSLinx.
After configuring the device,the driver fails to start,and I am not able to start it by selecting in the list.
I have interface before in the past with this plc using an older laptop with windows 98 without any issues. The lap top that I am currently using runs windows XP. I did change my RSLinx from an application to a regular program as the help menu suggested, but I am still not able to interface. Any ideas out there?
Thanks,
Manny
