Troubleshooting Potential

Problems

This section provides information about common converter problems and
actions that can be taken to correct them.

Unable to Establish Connection Between the Computer and Converter

• If the 1203-USB converter status indicators are off, connect the converter

cables and apply power to the drive. The converter draws its power from
the drive.

• Configure RSLinx to use the correct virtual COM port and baud rate. See

page 3-2

for the virtual COM port. The only baud rate that works is

115200.

No Communication to the Drive

• When connected to DPI-based drives, verify that converter

Parameter 06 - [Interface Mode] is set to ‘0’ (Auto).

• When connected to DSI-based drives, verify that converter

Parameter 01 - [Adapter Cfg] is set to ‘0’ (Auto).

Cannot Communicate with a SCANport-based Drive

Connected Components Workbench software does not support
SCANport-based devices. Use DriveExplorer or DriveExecutive software
for these devices.
