Hey folks,
I have to replace one PVP700 with another (screen flicker issues).
Unfortunately previous guy didn't backup relevant apa OR mer files for others (like me) to access.
We do have other PVP's around the plant but this is the 1st one I've had to replace.
1st, uploaded mer file from running PVP700 onto a flash card.
2nd, downloaded said mer file to the new PVP700 from flash card.
3rd, when prompted to overwrite comms I accepted.
Seems simple right? Yeah ok.
....Comms did not work. No Goto Config Button....
Had to get a utility flash file from rockwell to reset the PVP700. Now I'm stuck.
The flickering PVP700 is set to run DF1 to SLC 5/03.
Directory tree on Comm setup (on PVP) is as follows;
Serial DF1
- Panelview Plus 700, 3
- VB17SL 2
- Ethernet 2
PLC1221, 1
On new PVP700 after loading file;
Virtual Backplane
<No Device>
Ethernet
<No Device>
Serial DF1
<No Device>
Comm settings on SLC reamin at;
Ch 1 - DH485, 19200, Node 1
Ch 0 - DF1 Full Duplex, 19200 (defaults)
--- --- --- --- --- ---- --- --- ---
Would anyone have a step by step plan on how to make this work?
So I have;
SLC5/03, can communicate with 1747-PIC
PVP 700 2711P-B7C4D1 ser. A, can get it to communicate via ethernet but not DF1.
CP3 cable with Null adapter
1GB Compact Flash PC Card.
Thanks,
Four
