You can connect the MicroLogix 1500 programmable controller to
your personal computer using a serial cable from your personal
computer’s serial port to the controller, as shown in the illustrations
below.

ATTENTION
!
Chassis ground, internal 24V ground, user 24V dc
ground, and RS-232 ground are internally connected.
You must connect the chassis ground terminal screw
to ground prior to connecting any devices. It is
important that you understand your personal
computer’s grounding system before connecting to
the controller. An optical isolator, such as the
1761-NET-AIC, is recommended between the
controller and your personal computer when using
Channel 0. An isolator is not required when using
Channel 1 (1764-LRP).
