Hi everyone,
Heres a question for someone with a long memory.
Can a Computer (or P230 programming panel) be connected directly to a modicon 484 plc or is the j470 interface required?
I have some Talor Industrial Software written to program the 484 but the only comm cable diagrams are for use with the j470 (or similar) interface. However the text of the manual infers a direct connection can be made computer to 484. Cable Schematic anyone?
I have tried to locate Taylor Industrial Software of Canada but I think they may have stopped trading.
I also have a copy of modsoft which i think could be used.
The Plc's are located some hundreds of miles from my place of work and the people there are not to familiar with what is required.They are still using a cassete recorder to transfer programs from tape!
Any help or pointers in the right direction apprieciated.
