This blog post summarizes the different ways that you can connect to these PLCs and some of the pitfalls to look out for. One of the most popular series of PLCs from the 1990s to mid-2000s is the Allen-Bradly SLC 500 series: SLC 5/01, SLC 5/02, SLC 5/03, SLC 5/04, and SLC 5/05. With a large number of legacy systems, the original programming cables and software are often long lost by the time you want to make updates or need to troubleshoot an issue. Older PLCs, however, tend to use a myriad of different cables and protocols. Download and install the FactoryTalk Activation Manager software, and it will guide you through the process of choosing a hardware ID to use in conjunction with your product code and serial number to generate a *.LIC text file.With most modern PLCs, all you need to start programming or troubleshooting is to plug in your laptop with a plain old ethernet cable. If you really bought this from an individual it's more likely that you just need to fill out the transfer paperwork and use FactoryTalk Activation.

You just have to fill out a form transferring the license to the new owner. Was the text file a *.LIC file, or just a TXT file with the serial numbers ? RA licenses are transferrable I do this all the time with software we purchase, use for development and installation, then sell to our end customers. You can also try pointing the EVMOVECF.EXE utility (available from the RA Knowledgebase) at the ZIP disk.
A ZIP drive, like the old 100MB IOMEGA ZIP drives ? That's a blast from the past ! If the ZIP disk didn't have a file called EVMOVE.SYS on it (try enabling Windows to show System files) then it doesn't have an old-fashioned EVRSI activation.
