The ML1400 uses RS500.   Alan

Use CCW to open the .cha file.     Alan

Using Joe E. suggestion if you make the number right aligned and then put the % as a text beside it.     Alan

Create a text object and imbed the variable and put the % after the variable.     Alan

The 20.05 is the software version, the others you mentioned are the processor firmware. You should be able to use software version 20.05 to go online with PLC firmware version 20.   Alan.

What module are you trying to use and what firmware is the 5571?   Alan.  

The problem is the 1756-DH485 module was discontinued at the end of July 2015.   Alan.

Low power in PF755 and PF755 go upto 467amps (at 400v in my case)  The PF755HiHP drives are a modular construction and start at 460amps (at 400v in my case) So if your drives are below 400amps it is a safe bet that they are LP drives.   Alan.

Do you have any of the old standard Black panel views that use Panel Builder 32 if you do that software will not be able to talk to the panel views with RSLinx 4.12   Alan

Some of the PF525's have single phase input and 3 phase output. All PF525's have 3 phase outputs. Which model of PF525 do you have?   Alan.

I think you can use the data table monitor in RSLinx, I don't have any password protected PLC's to try it on.   Alan 

You will get a better answer if you list part numbers and which version of Logix you are using.

With the 5069 controllers you can set the ethernet ports to different IP address, or have them both have the same IP address. With having different IP addresses it allows you to connect to a scada network and a local IO network.   Alan.

Doesn't Rockwell have a tool called System Ferret that does this?

No you must right click in the tree in RSLogix 5000 and select add module then add the correct module, NOTE you are limited to 8 modules in 1794 Flex IO, if you need more you will need to add another 1794-AENT(R) and then add you extra modules into that "rack".   Alan

Is the remote rack a ControlLogix rack or Flex or Point IO, is the remote rack on ControlNet or Ethernet. All these things will need to found out to be able to add a new module.   Alan 

Drive Executive software is no longer supported by Rockwell, they want you to use CCW(Connected Component Workbench). You should still be able to get Drive Executive Lite and RSLinx Lite. Drive Executive Full is a paid product and usually comes with Drive Observer, the latest version of CCW (ver12 ) come with its version of trending, which can be configured offline. RSlogix/Studio5000 used DE up to a certain version and now uses CCW (not sure when this changed).   Alan  

That's what I was talking about.   Alan

If you go online with Ultraware, you can turn the Sercos function back on, someone may have turned it off to make the drive a indexing drive. Note you need to be online to do this, I do not have access at the moment but if I remember correctly it is at the top left hand of the menu tree when online.   Alan  

Open up your program that you downloaded and see what the settings are for the comm ports, did you click on accept comms changes, if you did then it should now have the comms settings that are in the downloaded program, just configure RSLinx to those settings.   Alan

Go online and look at the fault code and let us know what it is we will then be able to help you.

Which Ethernet driver are you using AB-ETH-IP or AB-ETH. If using AB-ETH, then type the L32E's IP address in the configuration box and then set your laptop to 192.168.10.x (just not the same as the L32E) and RSLinx Classic should see it. Are you able to ping the L32E from your laptop?   Alan

Can you use a CLX gateway Chassis with a 1756-ENBT(or newer) and a 1756-DHRIO modules to bridge the ethernet to the DH+ network?   Alan

I thought that RTC = Real Time Clock.    

You have to be  very careful when using the 1747-UIC and an ethernet cable, you should really use the C13 cable as some devices have 24volts on 2 of the pins but the C13 cable does not have those pins connected. If you use an ethernet cable you could damage the 1747-UIC. Alan
