Problem in uploading from Logix5561

[mastlog]

Hey guys,
I don't have much experience working with AB PLC's. I want to upload the program from the CPU. I have RSLOGIX5k V19 installed with serial RS-232 Cable. I configured the communication driver and seems to be working fine. But when i try to upload the program i get an Version error saying "Controller you requested contains firmware revision 16.57"

I can't understand that if i have higher version.. it should be back compatible. If that's not the case with AB systems then do i need to be so specific to have the same version installed in my PC (V16.57).

Can some one guide me. and in case if i need to have specifically the same version can some one post the link to download it.

Thanks in anticipation.

Best regards,

No, that's not how it works with AB - the version of Logix you are using has to match the controller firmware.

In this case you will need Logix v16, have a look here or here.
