Hi, I am an E&I Tech for an oil company in Wyoming. I'm in the process of changing all of my RTU radio's to MDS Transnet 900. I have about 350 RTU's and have had no problem with the 900 except when I try to get them to work with a AB 1500 Micrologix. Right now I have a 9-9 pin cable with TX,RX,GND going from the radio to the PLC comm 1. My channel 1 configuration is DF1 Half Duplex Slave 1200 Baud No Parity
control Line is Half Duplex Modem (RTS/CTS Handshaking) Error detection is CRC. I don't know if I need to configure this different when going to the Transnet or not. Before I had a Data Radio 3400 with modem and I have no trouble communicating with my host at these settings. I'm missing something when I try the same with the MDS Transnet any suggestions?
