Configure Allen-Bradley DF1 Communications Device dialog box.

Click the Auto-Configure button. RSLinx will attempt to configure your serial
port to work with the selected driver.

correctly between the processor and the serial port on your computer, and then try
again. If you are still unable to auto-configure the port, refer to your RSLinx
documentation for further troubleshooting steps.
