Multiple Screens in ROCLink - Troubleshooting Tip

Emerson’s ROCLINK 800 Configuration Software is a useful program that enables fast, efficient configuration and operation of ROC RTUs and FloBoss Flow Computers.

Have you ever wanted to have to ROCLINK screens open simultaneously but get a pesky error message? By entering a simple command, you can allow multiple screens in ROCLINK. Here is how to troubleshoot a common issue with the number of screens you can have open.

Open ROCLINK 800 and log in. 

If this is the first time you’re logging in to ROCLINK, you can click on password to get the default username and password to autofill.

We do recommend you change the password to meet your company security standards. 

In the menu bar, right-click on the ROCLINK icon to bring up the first menu, then right-click on ROCLINK 800 to get the advanced options menu. Then select properties. 

This should open a new window. Notice that target field is highlighted. 

1. Click on the right-most part of this field
2. Hit the space bar (only one space)
3. Type /multi
4. Click Apply

Go back to the start menu and click on ROCLINK again to open a new window. You can open as many windows as you need to compare and copy configurations as required.
