ABB Masterpiece 200 AUI/10Base2 to Ethernet

Our existing system Masterpiece 200 w/EN2009 2 module uses a AUI to 10Base2 Coax transceiver for connectivity to a Wonderware HMI. The computer is over 12 years old and running Win 3.1 with Wonderware 5.1. We need to upgrade and move to Ethernet. I used an AUI to Ethernet transceiver from Transition Networks but when I connected it to the AUI port, the ABB communications module went into a fail mode.

Has anyone had experience with this type of conversion (AUI/10Base2 coax to AUI/Ethernet) and if so, what was your solution? Which type of transceiver module did you use?

Thank you!
Kevin
