I am setting a up some new work station PC's with Factory Talk and RSLogix 5000 software.
All of my PLC's are set up on a network. I have the PC's set up on the network correctly.
In RSLinx I go to driver configuration, I choose the ETHIP driver and click on the option to 'browse remote subnet' after entering in my IP address (1.16.61.0) and subnet mask I go to RSwho to browse the network for my devices, but nothing ever shows up. This configuration matches exactly with "already functioning PC's". Funny thing is I can ping every device individually on the network just fine, I just cant seem to get RSLinx to automatically find any of my devices using ETHIP driver. It will on the other hand let me communicate with the devices using ETH driver. what is the freaking deal with the ETHIP driver??
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
