the name of the PLC ( or PROCESSOR) is UNTITLED. Notice the name of the window that pops up, "Select Processor Type"Īnyway, open the RS Linx again. Open RS Logix ( RSLogix Micro Starter Lite) and select NEW in FILES menu. Lets assume everything went right and RS Linx can see the PLC. That is the sign of a good Maintenance Electrician TIP: always write down the previous values. Remember I am using a RS-232 to USB converter. Also check DEVICE MANAGER of the Windows CONTROL PANEL if the values inside the USB Port adapter for RS-232 is the same as the RS-Linx setting. In the CONFIGURE DRIVER, Select the PLC you want to run and click START or CONFIGURE. NOTE : If it work before and did not work after shutting down/re-starting the PC(laptop), try to do any of the following -> Open RS-Linx, COMMUNICATIONS>CONFIGURE DRIVER. I remember from my instructor, that if it doesnt work just play with the following values. TIP: Make sure everything is connected and in the comms port and USB port in the Control Panel (Windows XP) - make sure there are no conflicts. NOTE: I tried to use the USB to Serial Adaptor in Vista, but it seems to difficult to configure, however it was pretty straight forward in XP, probably because it was designed for XP.Ĭlick "RS Who" <- RS Linx will do its best to look for the CPU, either in the Comm port (Serial Port) or Ethernet Port
