Hello, I'm doing a conversion from PV900 to PV1000, I facing some problem with the Block Transfer, For the block transfer BT1, BT2, BT3 from PV900 after convert to PV1000 what is the value I should put in PV1000 Group/Slot ? The value for BT1 is 0/0_ and BT2 is also 0/0_ for BT3 what value i should put ? if I put BT3 as 1/0_, and BT1 and BT2 is 0/0_, when I download the pv 1000 and communicating with PLC 5, the status indicator is static green, but I can't get the data value from the PLC5, anyone can help me ? Thank in advanced.

Hi, all, in the PLC program there, the three Block transfer is using group 0 and slot 0, but after the BT1 i set to 0/0_ and BT2 set to 0/0_, then the BT3 I cannot set 0/0_ anymore, anyone can help ?

I am no RIO expert with Panelview comm. But I believe the problem is, there is a 64 word limit per slot so in your second BTW you should use module 1 instead of 0.

Hi, Mickey, It's 64 Read and 64 write, is this wrong ? currently PLC5 comm with PV900 no problem, but if with PV1000, got problem.
