needing rslogix Micrologix 1200 help
I finally got a computer to connect to the plc using df1, null serial and the aic, had to be an old computer. although somewhere is written to use pic/aic serial with null. Originally my computer had port problems so I had an issue there that I finally resolved but have just tried the DF1 232 and it seems to work with auto config.
During this I had my laptop trying to use a usb conversion, anyhow I think I messed something up. I think I may have downloaded over whatever was on the plc bc I am slow to actually read advice sometimes.
I definitely tried to download a blank file apparently.
So, now my machine just says
"unit only active node on network"
and it won't come alive and work, it still has the user interface buttons that were for the program on the plc,
I think I may be able to find the original builder, I had to completely rebuild this machine to repurpose it so I need to modify the program, I have nulled out all the inputs to get it to work in the mean time but now even that is done and I really need to get this machine going quickly.
Please provide any advice if you can.
