PAB Powerbar

[Johan]

Hi

I have problems to install my PAB Powerbars. I have done it by the book and "Operation of PAB".
I have one (1) PAB Group
In "Configure Device" I can see two PAB 1.st ???1005055007 2.nd ???1005055005
In "Assign device" (enter) --> "No devices found!"

Led Pwr is constant Green
Led Com Flash Yelow by 1sec
PAB-cable from GHL3-Powerbar1-Powerbar2 (No ring)

Whats the problem, do I do anything wrong?

you have to press the side arrow when you want to assign the devices.

you need to see a checkmark in the squared box. Then it is really assigned.

Nothing happens when I push the arrowbutton. Under "Assign Devices" I can only press "enter".

Checkmarks where?

Hi Johan,

the S/N show me that this is the newest batch of the powerbars.

The firmware 5.00p didn't "know" these powerbars, if you use 5.00p then please update to 5.00q (or higher), this version will work with all powerbar versions.

Hi

I try to update to 5.00q byt now I get "Communication Error 28" when I try to connect via USB instead of LAN. I use the right COM-port.

Can´t find the type och USB-card I have as you say in other links when I open the GHL3 and try to find the text on the card.

What to do?

some PCs have problems with COM-numbers above 9

-> could you change the COM-number in the windows device manager manually, do the same setting in ProfiLuxControl and try it again?

maybe it helps to enable the RS485 delay - this reduces the transmission speed and may help in some cases

Did try to change com18 to com2 instead. RS485 delay and 2000ms.

Same problem, Error 28

If you try to connect, is there a reaction on the progress bar, or do PLC show an error immediately?
What kind of OS are you using on you computer?
Laptop or PC?

Could you try this:
disconnect the USB cable from ProfiLux,
remove the power on ProfiLux for a short time and reconnect it,
reconnect the USB cable to the ProfiLux

Any changes?
