I am having some trouble getting a PV+1250 with a 2711P-RN6 RIO adaptor to communicate with a PLC-5/20.
So after a call to AB and a lot of try-this, they said it could be the adaptor. Being the inquisitive sort, I removed the adaptor from the PV+ to see if there were any loose connections or anything else. Then I realized that this was just a 1784-PKXT card with a right angle adaptor.
I tried just the card in a PC and it showed up as a network card.
The 2711P-RN6 costs us $329 USD, how much is the 1784-PKTX card?!
Anyway, still can't get the PV+ to talk to the PLC-5, No com lights on the adaptor card. But communication is fine from the PLC to a PV 1400E.
