Problems with a PanelView 550

Problems with a PanelView 550

Problems with a PanelView 550

(OP)
Hi.

I have a Panel View 550 with RIO Port and RS-232 printer port.

I can not download my application from Panel Builder 3.82

I can to see the panel view on RSLinx using 2711-CN13 cable.

When I try to download the application, Panel Builder return the error 4091 - Application file is for an incompatible communication type.

I dont know what is the problem.

In Commnunication setup menu on the panel view, only appear RIO Configuration.

The RS-232 configuration only appear in printer setup.

RE: Problems with a PanelView 550

On the PanelView label there is a firmware revision number or FRN. This FRN must correspond to the FRN defined within the PanelBuilder application.

Other times I just let her sleep!

Yes, I have verified the FRN. it's OK.

Whatever, the problem is the same.

I know that can upload/download my application by RS-232 printer port.

Is possible that my panelview only have enable the RIO port to discharge applications?

I upload the main program to Panel Builder from Panel view by RS-232 printer port. I didn't have any problem. I can open the main application. But I couldn't discharge a new application.

what is my problem? I don“t understand.

RE: Problems with a PanelView 550

What is the station number in rslinx? Do you have another device using that number. Or maybe your panelview is set to a station # that is being used by somthing else. Go into linxs and verify that it is someware on you network and go from there.

RE: Problems with a PanelView 550

2711-CN13 is not a valid Rockwell part number.
To communicate to your RIO panelview, you will need an standard RS-232 9 pin null modem cable or Rockwell part # 1747-CP3.

Go into the panelview's configuration screen, under printer setup, you want Port Mode set to "Printing Disabled."
This will allow you to upload and download your application thru the RS-232 port.  In RSLinx you will use the RS-232 DF1 Driver.

An easier and much, much faster alternative is to use a memory card.
