ProLinx 5604-RIO-PDPMV1 device. Important: This Setup Guide shows you how to set up a simple RIO to PDPMV1 network between a PLC5 processor and a ProLinx 5604-RIO-PDPMV1 module. This guide should be used as a starting point only. In all likelihood, the requirements of your particular application will involve additional configuration and development.
Whether you are configuring your modules on the fly or just reading through to understand how to use the sample application, there are steps that you must perform even if you are not yet configuring any modules to suit your own application. Page 8 of 45 ProSoft Technology, Inc. November 20, 2008...
Install ProSoft Configuration Builder (PCB) ProSoft Configuration Builder helps you configure the module for your application. Insert the ProLinx Solutions CD into the CD-ROM drive on your PC. The ProLinx Solutions splash page appears: ProSoft Technology, Inc. Page 9 of 45 November 20, 2008...
Copy the Sample Application Files From the ProLinx Solutions splash screen, click Product Documentation. Choose Samples / RIO-PDPMV1. Copy the RIO-PDPMV1.ppf and RIOPDPMV1_SAMPLE.RSP files to a location on your PC. Page 10 of 45 ProSoft Technology, Inc. November 20, 2008...
Important: Take care not to overwrite existing data files in your application with data files in the sample application. Rename either the source or the destination data files, and then search and replace references in the ladder for instances of any renamed files. ProSoft Technology, Inc. Page 11 of 45 November 20, 2008...
Connect the right-angle connector end of the cable to your controller at the communications port. Connect the straight connector end of the cable to the serial port on your computer. Page 12 of 45 ProSoft Technology, Inc. November 20, 2008...
Click the Download button to transfer the sample program to the processor. When prompted, choose Computer to PLC RSLogix will compile the program and transfer it to the processor. This process may take a few minutes. ProSoft Technology, Inc. Page 13 of 45 November 20, 2008...
Page 14
Note: If the list of configured drivers is blank, you must first choose and configure a driver from the Available Driver Types list. The recommended driver type to choose for serial communication with the processor is "RS-232 DF1 Devices". Page 14 of 45 ProSoft Technology, Inc. November 20, 2008...
