Hi guys its been a number of years since I've worked with the Allen Bradley programs and the communication problems are starting to become a headache already.
My machine is a Windows 7 Pro 64 bit
I've downloaded and installed:
RSLinx Classic version 2.57.00
RSLogix Micro Starter Lite version 8.30.00
RSLogix 500 Emulate version 6.00.00.07 (CPR9)
At first I couldn't get the Emulate program to open, but I ran it in Administrator mode and now it will open. I can get RSLinx running using the SLC 500(DH485) Emulator Driver, I can write the code, verify the project, but when I go to Comms-->System Comms, pick my unit, click the box "apply to project" and click download I get the error "Not able to start emulator."
Does this have to do with having to run it as an administrator and when RSLogix goes to run the emulator it can't? Or is there something I'm missing? I'm thinking about just installing the whole thing in XP mode and using it there. Any thoughts?
