Configuration for Online
Communications
Before you can download or go online with a SLC 500 or MicroLogix processor, you
must configure PLC-500 A.I. to communicate. This involves telling PLC-500 A.I.
specifics about your communication hardware such as the interface type, network
address, baud rate, etc. These parameters will vary depending on the type of interface
you are using. For the SLC 5/03 and 5/04, you may also need to configure
communication channels (CH1 and CH0). Channel configuration will be covered in
the following chapter.
You can configure your programming device to communicate:
•
with a single processor, or a network of processors on DH–485
•
with a single processor, or a network of processors on DH+
•
from a terminal on a DH
+
network through a 1785-KA5 module to a processor on
a DH–485 network
•
from a terminal on an Ethernet network through a 5820-EI module to a processor
on a DH–485 or DH+ network
•
under Windows through WINtelligent™ LINX™
•
on RS–232 (DF1) to a 1770-KF3 module (DH-485), 1770-KF2 module (DH+), or
Ch0 (SLC 5/03 and 5/04 processors only)
