hi guys, hope you can help me out. i'm having trouble enabling a channel on an AB 1784 PKTx card using wonderware's I/O server software.
machine is p4 2.8GHz, winXP SP2, 512MB RAM, etc. my problem is the green LED on the back of card doesn't flash. looking at user manuals, this means the channel is not online.
i've tried using RSLinx and that works perfectly, when i run and stop the driver the LED flashes and stops as expected.
i've followed all the guides scattered on the internet on how to configure AB 1784KT I/O server with PKTX card (eg tech note 289) but i simply don't know how to enable the channel. does starting the I/O server program enable the channel automatically?
only thing i can't do is install .bin files, everytime i type "install c:" the error is "c is an invalid target drive" can .bin files be copied over manually using windows explorer?
so in summary
1) how do you enable a channel using wonderware I/O server?
2) how do you install .bin files?
TIA, any questions just post them up and i will try my best to answer them.
