I have some old Panelview plus displays (version5) that are not being used. I would like to set them up to communicate with some version 30 PLCs for some basic indication (nothing important). I know the hardware version won't support it communicating in the standard way, but has anybody been able to set up generic communication for something like this. I hate for the displays to go to waste, but AB will just tell me to buy a new display. I figure there has to be a way to communicate to the display with MSG statements or something. This isn't for a specific project, just trying to not watse displays that we have.
Thanks.
