ris64 Posted February 4 Report Posted February 4 Hello, I have a problem with the TSX 17 PLC controller mounted on the paper cutting machine. The controller suddenly changed its status from RUN to STOP mode and now the green light is blinking. The exact number on the controller is TSX 1713428 or TSX17-10 AC 34 I/O RELAYS. There are no other lights to blink. I read somwere in the forums how to change the status jo RUN but I have no computer with old operating systems no any cable with conversations from 232 to 486 standards and I do not know which software can do this. My question is can I do this without the above-mentioned things? Have a nice evening! Quote
ris64 Posted February 7 Author Report Posted February 7 Hello, I have a question for you. On my TSX17-10 AC there are 2 ports on its left side, one is DB15 which as I understand is an RS 485 port for programming and communication between TSX17 and computer and the other is DB9 which I don't know what it is for and it looks like an RS232 port. Can someone tell me what it is for and can it be used for communication and programming? I only need to change the status from STOP to RUN mode. Only this LED is blinking. I already bought a converter from RS232 to RS485 (I will attach a picture) but it says A and B not Rx and Tx as in the diagram which I will also attach. The question is which one should I connect where? I also need to find and install software that supports PL-2 language on a laptop running Windows 7x32 I don't know if under DOS or to emulate one of Windows 95 or 98 which would be easier? I may have more questions but that's it for now. Any help would be appreciated. Have a nice day! Quote
acpi Posted February 7 Report Posted February 7 Hi, Answer is no... you need PL7-2 software and a RS232 to RS485 converter. JC Quote
