Posted 21 Jan 2016 Hi, I am trying to go online with PLC and i got an error. The funny part is before I shutdown RSLink, it was lite version and i was able to go online with my PLC. However, When I re-opened RSLinx, It became gateway version and I dont have an access to go online with PLC anymore. I have attached a screenshot.

In RSLogix: go to "Communications" (at the top) then go to "Who Active" and make sure that you can find your processor, select it, and click "Set Project Path". Either your RSLinx Classic Lite isn't running, or the address of the PLC changed or the driver for your PLC in RSLinx got deleted/ changed. Either way RSLogix can't find your path anymore.

Posted 22 Jan 2016 I don't think you can have both RSLinx Lite and RSLinx Gateway. The only reason it shows RSLinx Gateway is the software found an activation for RSLinx Gateway when it stared. Either on your computer or on a network. Someone correct me if I'm wrong. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 23 Jan 2016 When you install RSLinx it installs all versions which are then activated, you can only have one version of RSLinx installed on your computer. Alan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
