Hi all!
So I am still having issues communicating with some controllers at the plant through the ethernet/ip drivers. We are using 1769-L32E compact logix connected to a stratix 5700.
I know absolutely nothing about the stratix switch. However I did notice that the PLC is connected to the switch with a straight though cable. I have been connecting to the programming port on the side of the machine with a straight through. The jumper from the port to the stratix is also straight through. Will I need a crossover to communicate properly? Or is the issue more that my LAN settings and RSLinx are not configured properly?
