3. Connecting to a Micro800 controller on a virtual machine If you install RSLinx Classic on a virtual machine for example VMWare make sure to disable RSLinx Classic on the host computer before you plug the USB cable that is attached to your Micro800 controller into the host computer If you ignore this step the host computer will obtain the driver for the Micro800 controller and the virtual machine may not be able to detect the Micro800 controller Connecting to a Micro800 controller using the Ethernet connection If you use the Ethernet instead of a USB to connect to the controller you may need to add the Ethernet driver Unless you are using DHCP or assigning static IP addresses your computer and the Micro800 controller will default to IP addresses that will allow them to communicate To add an Ethernet driver and connect to a controller Follow these steps to add the Ethernet IP driver so the RSLinx can detect the controller 1 Click Communications gt Configure to open the Configure Drivers dialog box 2 In Available Driver Types select Ethernet IP Driver 3 Click Add New and type a name for the driver or accept the default name 4 If prompted enter the Ethernet IP adapter selection Note If connecting using CAT5 style cabling be sure to select the correct port it may not be the Windows default Click Connect to open the Connection Browser Expand the Ethernet driver you previously added Select the controller that
