Jesper... Where do i find the "Hardware Diagnostics"? In response to your other question, yes i have replaced EVERY piece of hardware from the ET200L down to the PT-100 (wiring also). We had an issue similar to this before, and all it took to fix it was to "shuffle" the cards within the ET200L. This worked on another module, however, i didnt on this one. .eric

Anyone??? .eric

I have a pretty big issue w/ our Step7/Braumat system. I for a brewery / contract packaging company, and i have been dubbed "IT". Im new to automation / programming but i have learned a lot in trying to resolve this issue. If there is anyone here that thinks they could help, please let me know. Here is a very vague description of my problem. Two of out AI's (PT-100 to RTD's) are not reading correctly. They are erroring out at the low limit set up in the program. Its something within the software. All of the hardware has been swapped out and works in other locations. Known working hardware has been put into the physical loation of the hardware that is malfunctioning and nothing works in the "bad" spots. Ive been on another forum and got a huge response with a lot of great ideas, but they didnt really get me anywhere. I can get a lot more detailed if someone wants to take a stab at this. Thanks. .eric

I have a US Filter water softener i just got hooked up and plumbed into our brewery, and i need to check the program on it / download a new one. It is controlled via a Micrologix 1500 PLC. I have a 1747-PIC for our 500 series PLC. Can this be "modified" in any way to use it as a com link to the 1500? If not, what cable / com device would i need to edit / upload a new program to the Micrologix? I have all of the software needed, RSLinx and RSLogix, just in need of the correct cable. Sorry if this is a "n00b" question, still learing this stuff. Thanks in advance. .eric
