Bob, it's a A984-145, a compact 984. I've tried to connect to 5 or six similar compacts. Some of the people I worked
with had this software running on same laptop (compaq) and
it worked ok. I suspected the cable originally, and had
someone connect using their laptop with my cable, and it...
Thanks for the reply Bob. When I do a F1 network scan
it shows 984??? at node 1. I tried experimenting with
the dip sw settings, even tried to communicate ascii
instead of rtu, but never saw the modbus led flash, except
with all dips in off position and using the default comm
parameters...
I can't download a ladder, I'm getting "timeout on receive
error" every time I try to go online. When I retry is when
I get the "processor in dim awareness" error, which I've had numerous times in the past and was always able
to restart the ladder (which was still there). The pc sees
the 984...
Using old dos based taylor and keep getting this error
message (2044). Have tried different cables and different
processors, same thing. Tried all combos of comm settings.
Tried installing it in windows 98 and xp, same thing. When
I press F1 to attach, the modbus light on processor flashes...
