MicroLogix PLC PC Programming cable

[lchamarthi 2]

Hello Can you please share me the PC programming cable details to MicroLogix1200 PLC. I have the PLC MicroLogix1200 with me but no programming cable. So I want to make the cable if you can help me in pin connections. Also One more is that I have bought Panelview component C600 model AB HMI. For this too please let me know PC programming cable details, Thanks Lakshmi

The best thing to do is to get the proper cable from A-B and do it right the first time. I'm not saying it cant be done, but why would you want to rig up some sort of cable for it especially when you have a p/v-600. I would ask the place or person where you "acquired" this equipment from to give you the cable being as you spent all that money getting a m/l 1200 and a p/v-600 or spend the $85.00 or less and buy one. Just my opinion.

Regarding the MicroLogix 1200 cable go to Allen Bradley Knowledgebase article18942 Pay very close attention to the pins which are not used. DO NOT WIRE ANYTHING to those.
