I need to connect a Modicon 3240 controller to a Wyse-185ES monitor and keypad. I cannot locate any documents on the 3240 to get me started. Has someone else done this? Can anyone help?
are both a serial based unit ? Is one DTE and the other DCE ? if so, a normal serial cable would interface them, however I don't think it will be that simple (but ya never know)
The 3240, you could as an "interem" step, use a PC's com port and "hyper terminal" to access it, this should be a normal cable, and in hyper-term you can "knock on the 3420's door" with 3 taps of the "enter" key (a general "are you there" request in serial connections).
Or are they using other style coneections for these ?
I have documantation the Modicon 3240 system. However I can also use some help setting my unit up. If you would like to talk futher about this you can call me at 586-751-3335 X248 My name is Donald Jones I have a extra set of manuals if you are interested. 6/13/05
