and "No Response from PLC(22)"
Just installed AdvancedHMI v3.99f...attempting to use DigitalPanel control.
Added EthernetIpforSLCMicroCom to Form...Set IP appropriately and set Port to 2222 (Allen Bradley std)
On the control set PLCAddressValue to N100:2
The (2) No Response messages are flashed/displayed in the control Text property.
I have been told by our PLC guy that this should be a valid Address.
Any ideas what I may be doing wrong?
Thanks!

Port 2222 is for an older ABEthernet protocol typically used on early generation SLC5/05. The AdvancedHMI driver only supports the Ethernet/IP protocol, so it's default port is 44818

Using 44818, I am getting could not connect....Timed Out.
I am guessing our devices are too old?
Anyway to minimally update our hardware?
-
What PLC are you using?
Do you have a serial port available you can test with using the SerialDF1 driver?
-
PLC5/40.
I'm the VB guy no the PLC guy...so I do not have serial port access to the device.

For the 5/40, you will need to use the EthernetIPforPLC5Com driver. However, it still may not support Ethernet/IP. There are 2 way to check if it does. On the front of the processor or Ethernet card, there is typically the Ethernet/IP logo. Or if you use RSLinx and setup and Ethernet/IP driver, then go to RSWho to see if it shows up in the browse.

PLC5/40? LOL, Oh gosh, that's so new for me since I am still dealing with PLC2s.
I recently was able to upgrade a PLC2 machine to a newer type device that a number of people had been trying for years. My next step is to upgrade it to a CLX system with AdvancedHMI.
