Good Morning ,
I cannot believe I forgot how to do this. It seems like I have been spoiled with everything being Ethernet. I have a SLC 500 5/04 that I am trying to communicate with . I am trying to use a 1747-CP3 cable with my serial port. I am having a difficult time getting a consistent connection. I will gain some connectivity, and try to upload the PLC program , but I will get a communication
error " Upload Failed ! Communication Errors ! " . I tried a few 1747-CP3 cables and I get the same results. Monday , I am going to try a USB adaptor that I think works with the 1747-CP3 that I found in another laptop case. Any thoughts
on this issue and any experiences ?
Also , do you folks have some good links explaining how Com Ports work ? I am confused on some other drivers that are in RS Linx on this computer that has
Com 5 listed . Is it possible that I need to do something in Device Manager ?
Thanks so much for your help. You and your families have a Merry Christmas.
