Change the PLC processor type in the project to match the connected PLC or use auto online.

Although your CX-Programmer version is pretty old, it should not matter. I am not sure, but I vaguely remember something with a CQM1 being recognised as a wrong CPU type having to do something with a particular dipswitch setting. I am sorry but just can't remember the details, will have to dig for it. I also could be completely wrong.... Bob, I am affraid Auto-online is not an option with the mentioned CX-Programmer version. Anyway I think it would be helpful if you post your CPU dipswitch settings? Ans what port are you connecting to? Have you tried just selecting every CQM1 model 1 by one?

plcbent, I suggest you download the manuals provided to you in the previous topic. You can find dipswitch settings in there, default connection setup etc. A datasheet of the analog units of the CPU45-EV1 is also provided in that same topic. I just realized you have never reported back with your progress on connecting the CPU21, following you requested information on the CPU45-EV1 which you got and next you just open a new topic down the same line. Some very helpful users assisted you and took time to get you on the right track. Your posts often lack giving answers to specific questions you were asked. I think it is time you show some effort by working through the manuals and answering some of your own questions.

Im sorry about not getting back to you guys with problems regarding to the cpu 21. I got stuck and bought some new plcs. But now i seem to have a new problem, i have never had the problem with the pc that cant find a cpu01. There for i made a new toppic hope its ok maybee its the version of the software. Can i upgrade this version for FREE anywere. now its got a license number? ill look thru the manuals to se if i can find some things there i was just thinking maybee one of you expert guys knew what the problem was, and then could guide me in the right direction keep up the good work guys ILL BEE BACK Edited 28 Jan 2009 by PdL
