This will allow either a laptop or a desktop PC use. Only one of the programs can use
the port at a time, however. If a PC is available with 2 ports, It is recommended that
COMM1 be dedicated for use by DeviceNet Manager (and the 1770-KFD interface) and
COMM2 be dedicated for use by the "DF1 protocol" and RSLogix500.
This guide shows DeviceNet Manager installation and *.EDS file downloads from a 3 ½
