ProWORX 32 display a PLC on the 'Network Explorer' window as a 'BUSY CONTROLLER' with a question mark?

need help proworx 32 with modicon quantum cpu 113 Quantum 113 cpu

The reason that the PLC is displayed as a busy controller with a question mark is because it is a device that is unsupported by '.ProWORX 32'. The 'Network Explorer' finds controllers, bridges, bridge multiplexers, and other devices that are attached to the network. 'ProWORX 32' displays the PLC's that are found by using the information that is stored in the PLC memory and the exec firmware (address number, type, operating mode, and status). Because it cannot recognize the exec firmware, it does not know what information to display and shows a question mark.
Is this your case?
An unsupported device could be:
A Qauntum 984 PLC that has been upgraded to support Unity.
A Quantum Unity Co-processor PLC.
A Premium PLC with a Modbus Plus network adapter card.
A PLC on the network that does not support the 984 ladder logic used by 'ProWorx 32'.

Remeber Quantum 113 cpus could be programmed with either Concept or Proworx it depends if the cpu has been flashed as a IEC or 984LL.
If it is a 984LL cpu you can just upload from the cpu using Proworx
If it is an IEC cpu you will only be able to upload using Concept but only if uploading has been enabled in the original program
