Hello All,
We have a MicroLogix 1200 series controller on a package in our plant. We need to connect a serial device to MicroLogix 1200 for monitoring in CCR.
There are two ports on MicroLogix 1200;
1) Primary Port (Channel 0)
2) Programmer/HMI Port
Primary Port is already used by Panel View 300, so we can only use Programmer/HMI Port to connect the new device.
Programmer/HMI Port communicates on DF1 protocol only, so we'll need a AIC+ converter to convert DF1 protocol into RS232 and this RS232 will be transmitted to personal computer over a serial link.
Now I'm trying to access the controller using Programmer/HMI Port alongwith AIC+ converter but Programmer/HMI Port gives nothing.
What can be the reason behind it? Anyone please help!!!
Please do confirm either we can use the both ports at the same time in MicroLogix 1200.??
