PanelView 300 Programming
PanelView 300 Programming
(OP)
I have a Panelview 300 (2711-K3A17L1) connected to the second comm port on my MicroLogix 1500 (LRP). The first comm port is connected to a 1761-NET-ENI and through that to my pc. Is it possible to program my Panelview with this setup through RSLinx? I've tried a few different comm configurations and all I get is a "Device is not a Panelview" fault.
If this will not work for me, what is the most effective way to program it? I don't have any serial ports available on my pc.

RE: PanelView 300 Programming
One possibility would be to add two more 1761-NET-ENI modules and an ethernet switch. Build a star type network with the switch at the center. Both of the MicroLogix ports, and the PanelView connect to the switch through 1761-NET-ENI modules. The PC should then be able to see the PanelView and MicroLogix via the switch.
Refer to the 1761-NET-ENI user manual, 1761-UM006E-EN-P, Fig. 3.1, and imagine that one of the devices connected to the switch is a PanelView.
Or, replace the PV300 with a PV550 or PV+400, which has both DF1, and ethernet capabilities.
