Does anyone have some advice on how to get away from using a PIC device to communicate with my SLC 500's I have mostly 5/02's. The problem I have is, the PIC clogs up my Com 1 port. If I try to use DF1, I have to manually update my com port.
Thanks

There are several ways of getting around the 1747-PIC:
For Desktop pc's the 1784-PKTX (for a PCI slot)and the 1784-KTX (for a ISA slot.) For your notebook a 1784-PCMK will work.

Thanks Steve, I do have the PCMK, but I cannot find the drivers for it, can you point me in the right direction?
 
The driver is included in RSLinx. In the configure drivers window of RSLinx, where you added the PIC box, select the 1784-KT (to the right of that you will see your pcmk listed along with other cards).
