RSlinks port conflict

2 posts in this topic

Hello, 

I just installed RSlogix 500 and RSlinks on Windows 7 32 bit. in other similar machines it worked fine. But on this one it is bringing the issue of port may be in use for all of the port up to 31. Therefore I cannot configure the drivers.

Regards,

RSLinx wants to own the world...if you have any other software packages that intend to use the COM0, serial, port then you must disable them.  I like to use my Palm Pilot database to store phone numbers and extensive passwords and notes, and these 2 packages fight one another.

Also, you are running Windows 7...does this PC have a hard serial port?  RSLinx wants to connect to COM0, a serial port.  If your PC has its serial port numbered differently then you found your problem.  If your PC has no hard serial port then you found your problem.
