Micrologix 1500 fault

[Microbictomb 0]

Hello all. I am new to PLC's in general and starting a repair/testing facility with a couple coworkers. I learned the PLC 5/40 and set up a test bench through reading pdf manuals and can now program and repair them and corresponding modules. I just received a Micrologix 1500 1764-LRP/24BWA and a box of DC I/O modules to set up a new test bench. RSLinx comm set up goes through okay to the controller. The green power led is solid and the fault led is flashing red. The controller shows up in the system comms menu of RSLogix 500 but it shows as faulted and when I click go online it says "Unknown Processor Type". Any ideas on how I can get communication up to see this or am I just looking at a bad module?

The PLC 5/40 uses RS Logix 5 and the ML1500 uses RS Logix 500. They look the same, but they are not compatible. Make sure you are using RS Logix 500 for the ML1500.
