if anyone is interested, i found the answer. V23 of studio 5000 is the last version apparently that will run Softlogix.
However, when i add the ethernet ip card it will not allow me to change the IP address to anything other then what my computers IP is or 0.0.0.0
Not sure where to go from here.
End goal is to get the ML1400 which i have physically to send some messages to Soflogix controller using MSG statements
if anyone has any ideas this morning i much appreciate it.
I'd be interested to know if you got it working. I'm planning to try to use Softlogix for the first time soon. I also need to test some MSG instructions.
