I have got a Panel View 300 (2711-K3A19L1) which is currently being used on a production machine. I have not got access to the panelview program that is currently on this panelview. I would like to upload the program, modify it and then download it. Is this possible?
As i am new to panelview programming and can not take the panelview 300 offline i have been messing about with a panelview 550 (2771-K5A16) that we have kicking around. I have been able to eventually see this panelview in RSLinx by using a straight through 9 pin RS232 cable from my laptop (with a legacy extender http://www.dell.com/en-us/work/shop/accessories/apd/430-3115?c=us&l=en&s=bsd&cs=04&sku=430-3115) but i can not use the factorytalk transfer utility to upload or download anything. When i go to download or upload anything it errors out and says "The destination selected is not a valid device".
Can anyone help me in what im doing wrong. Is it even possible to use the transfer utility with these old panelviews?
