Hi, im still looking for help on this one if anyone can advise?
-
So i ordered this, plugged in and no problems at all, works with the ACPU. However what doesnt work is that there are a couple of functions that ACPU doesnt support. TRD and TWRP

This is using the same rs232 to db25 that works on an old laptop with port. But its plugged into a rs232 to usb adaptor which has drivers installed and is recognised by Windows.

Drivers sourced here https://ftdichip.com/drivers/vcp-drivers/ But, as I say, it appears in Device Manager and Ive changed COM port to COM1, tried different speeds etc.

A long time since purchasing, but tested this today. FTDI drivers install okay, but cannot communicate with the ACPU PLC
-
The issue with this is that my new laptop does not have an rs232 port

I have purchased this, https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0859YX2J1/ref=pe_27063361_487055811_TE_dp_1 Now though reading your comments I am unsure if this will work? I old laptop with rs232 port that I use, but it is terrible, so now have one with only a usb to use.

Hi, We have some spares at work already, but thank you
-
Thanks for thew advice guys, Dont worry I dont intend to add anymore than 1 output coil. the PLC is working perfectly now for my needs.

M8000 is not present on the A1ShCPU PLC. I also am not seemingly able to get a usb to rs232 connector to communicate via the rs232 to db25 connector
