Connecting the Controller to a Personal Computer
To connect the controller to a personal computer, you need a communications cable,
catalog number 1747-C10, and an RS-232/DH-485 interface converter, catalog
number 1747-PIC.
Note This procedure does not apply to SLC 5/04 processors. For these processors, you
need to connect a 1747-CP3 cable from channel 0 of the processor to the personal
computer serial port, or you need to use a KT, KTX, KT2, or PCMK card.
1. Locate the communications channel of the controller. The figure below shows
where it is located on modular and fixed controllers.

2. Insert one end of the 1747-C10 cable into the communications port of your
controller.
3. Insert the other end of the 1747-C10 cable into the DH-485 connector of the
1747-PIC interface converter. The DH-485 connector is shown in the following
illustration.
