Micrologix 1400 - HMI communication

Post by marcosbelgo »

Hello friends,
I am new with the micrologix and I am having difficulties to understand what I need to configure to establish communication between MICROLOGIX 1400 and HMI IX-T5F-2 from the Altus. I am triyng make communication throug the channel 2 of PLC with the COMM port of HMI, that is a RS232/485 serial DB9 multiprotocol according to CH2 of PLC. I am using a serial cable DB9 male Female.


I can use any protocol to make this, I choosed the DH-485 because have less configuration parameters.

I have understood that I just have configure CH2 of PLC on the rslogix 500 in the channel configuration on the project tree and the configuration of HMI is according to RSlogix What else have to do? Anybody can help me?

Thanks

On the channel status, in the project tree of rslogix, this channel dont show any work.... but the indicator of channel 2 on PLC display, it is active. In the HMI is showned ''No answer from PLC 1''.
