    FX 16 Remote Display Problem

    I have an FX 16 with onboard display. I am trying to add a remote display. I have it hooked up to the remote display terminals but it just says device offline and address 1. I tried changing addresses and re-downloading the configuration but it doesn't work. I also noticed that it says RT+ RT- and RT Com so I tried hooking it to the local bus. It still doesn't work. any ideas anyone??

    only onboard display will work if you have it on controller.
    You can remove it then try to connect remote dispay everything will be ok

    Do you have any configured data on display string or value?

    Can you check that the MUI version is aligned with FX FW version and your tool version?
