Panelview Plus
Panelview Plus
(OP)
I am trying to connect a panelview plus 400 to a PLC 5/60. I can't seem to get the PLC to recognize the panelview at all. I am new at this (I've been an engineer for only a couple of months) and can't seem to figure out what is wrong. If anyone knows I would appreciate any ideas you might have. Someone mentioned updating the driver but I don't know how to do that.

1. What is the settings for the panel, rack, slot, group etc...
2. What addressing scheme is your PLC-5 set up for 1-slot (most common), 2 slot, or 1/2 slot.
3. Assuming you are using 1-slot, then you will have one input word and one output word for each of the configured slots in the panelview.
4. In most cases you will need to pass more info, such as Bit files and iNteger files, this would be accomplished via a block transfer. What is the block transfer set up in the plc?

2. The RSLinx Enterprise configuration must be correct. It is downloaded to the PV+ as part of the runtime application. Be sure to check 'Replace communications' in the transfer utility, when you download the file.
