Step 5 - (Optional) Configure the Port 3 Pass-Through
After you configure the MVI46-DFNT pass-through server, you may configure

Port 3 to receive DF1 commands in order to allow access from a DF1 Master to

the SLC data file.
In order to accomplish this, refer to the DF1-Pass-Through Port Section at the

MVI46-DFNT configuration file.

4.17.1 Troubleshooting

If you are unable to connect the software converter to the MVI46-DFNT you may

have to configure the communication parameter used in the network. In order to

achieve a functional communication between the local PC and the SLC

processor, all communication parameters at each part of the network must

match. This means that the communication parameters configured at the

following parts of the network should be the same:
 SLC processor Channel 0 (Use RSLogix500)
 MVI46-DFNT configuration (DF1 Pass-Through Server Port 1)
 Serial/IP Software Converter (required, must obtain separately)
 RSLinx RS-232 driver (use the auto-config feature)
