Question

I upgraded to the new DirectSoft, but I can't get a link to my PLC.

Answer

When communicating through F2/FA-UNICON and FA-ISONET in DirectSoft 3.0 it is sometimes necessary to go into the link editor and under Flow Control change NONE to RTS/CTS in order to get the software to create a link. This was not necessary in the 16 bit software.
