Hi,
I am currently trying to set-up five Anybus Communicator units (Modbus-RTU Slave version). But all five modules show exactly the same behaviour, LED’s 1…4 are off, LED 5 is solid red, LED 6 flashes Green/Red.
We are a bit short on PC’s with a D-SUB9 comport but luckely the servers for the project have one so I am running the Anybus Configuration Manager on windows 2019 Server - this is going without a problem, I get no error messages or anything.
When I connect to the Unit with the supplied cable however and click on “connect” I get presented with a message " no module was found, retry?". - during this process none of the LED’s change state.
This behaviour is the same for all units; I have tried three of the cables that came with the units, and I am running out of options. I also, after finding a post on this forum, tried the feature to factory restore. But this process terminates with the message “could not download to communicator”
I am running completely out of options… have you got any suggestions?
Serial No. of two if the units:
0002FD9D
0003024F
