STEP BY STEP INSTALLATION - this tutorial is documented in Windows 7 home premium - Procedures may vary ranging from different OS versions.

Hardware requirements - an Intel Pentium II® or greater microprocessor - 128 MB of RAM for Windows NT, Windows 2000, or Windows XP installations (64

MB for Windows 98® installations - 45 MB of available hard disk space - 256-color SVGA graphics adapter with 800x600 resolution - a CD-ROM drive or a flash drive - any Windows-compatible mouse or other pointing device

Software requirements

- The operating system must be one of the following: - Microsoft Windows 2000

- Windows XP (with or without Service Pack 2) - Windows Server 2003 (with or without Service Pack 1)

- Windows Server 2003 R2 - RSLogix 500 will not run on earlier versions of Windows, nor will it run on

Windows Vista. - RSLogix 500 relies on RSLinx Classic™ communication software, version

2.51.00 or later.

Installing Rs Linx

RSLinx Classic Lite provides communication between the programmable controller and a personal computer. To install RSLinx Classic Lite software:

1. Log onto the computer as an administrator or as a user with

administrative privileges. 2. Insert the RSLogix 500 CD-ROM into the CD-ROM drive. The

installation program should start automatically. If it does not, open the installation disk with Windows Explorer and run AUTORUN.EXE.

OR

Insert the Flash drive that contains the installer file for RSLinx. Locate the file which contains the installer files

Double Click the file labelled “RSLinx/RSLinx Classic™” to view its contents, a list of items of the following figure will prompt on the screen.

TRANSFER MASTER KEY TO A FLASH DRIVE

A special build of the EVMOVE Program has been created in response to the growing number of PC's and Laptops that are created without a Floppy Drive. The steps below will describe the appropriate way to move an activation file from a master (floppy) disk, or Hard Drive to a USB Flash Drive.

1. Format the USB Flash Drive to FAT32

Right Click the flash drive

Double click on Format… in the list pane

Note :

FAT or NTFS formats on the flash drive are not recommended and has not been proven to work well with this procedure

Make sure any information is copied off of the Flash Drive BEFORE the format. You can check the current format of a Flash Drive by right clicking it in

Windows Explorer and selecting Properties.

EVMOVECF is designed to recognize Compact Flash Drives.

Select the drive letters; 1st Slot : Select drive letter that contains the floppy drive/virtual drive of the License keys 2nd Slot : Select drive letter that contains the flash drive. Click OK.

Basic instruction description

Instruction Icon

Name Description

XIC

Examined If Closed

Functions as an input or storage bit. If it is ON, it will allow rung continuity and outputs will be energized.

XIO

Examined If Open

Functions as an input or storage bit. If it is ON, it will not allow rung continuity and outputs on the rung will be de-energized.

OTE Output

Energize Sets the specified bit when rung continuity is achieved (rung goes true).

OTL

Output Latch

Functions about the same as OTE except that once a bit is set with an OTL, it is "latched" on. The bit must be reset with an OTU instruction.

OTU Output

Unlatch It unlatches a latched bit which was set by an OTL instruction. The address for this instruction should be identical to the OTL address that originally set the bit.

Addressing

Addresses are made up of alphanumeric characters separated by delimiters. Delimiters include the colon, period, and slash. Where:-

Data File Type ; Data files contain the status information associated with external I/O and all other instructions used in ladder program.

Control Box ; Defines the instruction is connected to Number which control box.(starts with numerical 0 and onwards for each controller)

Downloading a ladder logic

Create a ladder logic or desired program

Example: 1 Insert an instruction on a rung, click ; a normally open

contact appears on the rung.

2 The instruction just placed is an input. To assign the data file type to it, double-click on the normally open contact placed and enter "I1:0/1"

3 Assign a symbol to the instruction, right-click the normally open contact, a menu prompts and then select Edit Symbol. Enter "PB1" and then hit the Enter key on the keyboard. (Assigning a symbol to the instruction can be used as a substitute for an address so that the instruction can be easily identified. All instructions having the same address automatically have the same symbol. A symbol is unique. The same symbol cannot be applied to different addresses. Symbols can be up to 20 characters in length.) NOTE : Anytime you right-click any element in the

ladder diagram, a menu prompts with editing options for the selected element.

4 Click the first rung number (0000) and then click the Rung

Branch icon . A new branch appears.

NOTE : When placing a branch, if the cursor is on an instruction, the branch is placed immediately to the right of the instruction. If your cursor is on the rung number, the branch is placed first on the rung. For more information about branching, please refer to the section "Branching".

5 Click the right leg of the branch and drag the leg to the right

of the "PB1" contact. A valid release point will be shown as a green rectangle on the ladder display.

6 Click on the lower left leg of the branch and then click the Examine if Closed icon . Double click and enter the address "I1:0/2".

7 Assign a symbol to the instruction, right-click the normally

open contact. A menu prompts and then select the Edit Symbol. Enter "PB2" and then hit the Enter key on the keyboard.

50

8 Click the right leg of the branch and then click on the Output

Energize icon . An output load appears. Double-click the output and enter the address "O0:0/0".

9 Assign a symbol to the instruction, right-click the normally

open contact added to the rung. A menu prompts and then select Edit Symbol. Enter "PL0" and then hit the Enter key on the keyboard.

10 The ladder logic should resemble the following figure:-

Verifying the file 1. Verify the ladder logic by clicking the Verify File icon OR click Edit, Verify File from the menu bar. 2. If the file has mistakes, the Verify Results output window

displays and gives information on mistakes or omissions occurred in the program.

i.e.:-

3. If the program has no mistakes the lower left corner of the RSLogix window states: "Verify has completed, no errors found".

i.e.:-

Saving the file

1 Click File, Save; or

- This is done only once; the save window will not prompt the next time as it’ll automatically save the file. Unless the user needs to change file type; location; etc, use Save As..; under the File tab, the save window will prompt hence the user may proceed.

- The user may skip this step and proceed to download the file to the PLC but the software will automatically prompt the save window to save the file as a precaution for a backup and is also done only once for first time downloads.

Restoring Factory Defaults

SLC-500 processors

Note : The Ladder Program will be lost if a processor is returned to Factory Defaults.

Note : If a memory module that has been configured for auto load is installed, after performing a reset. The old program will be restored into the processor RAM memory.

SLC 500 Fixed I/O 1. Remove Power 2. Open CPU Compartment ( Series C units can not be factory reset ) 3. Disconnect Battery 4. Remove Memory Module ( 1747-M1 ) Skip step 4 if a Memory Module is not

Installed. 5. Locate RAM (IC3) 6. Connect Pins 14 and 28 (PWR & GND) with paper clip.

( See Diagram )

Note : The preferred connection method is to use a 10 Ohm Resistor

7. Short for 20 Seconds or More.

SLC 500 ( 5/01 & 5/02 ) 1. Remove Power 2. Remove CPU Module 3. Remove Memory Module ( EEPROM )- 1747-M1

( Skip step 3 if a Memory Module is not Installed ) 4. Disconnect Battery 5. Locate RAM (IC3) 6. Connect Pins 14 and 28 (PWR & GND) with paper clip.

( See Diagram )

Note : The preferred connection method is to use a 10 Ohm Resistor

7. Short for 20 Seconds or More.

SLC 500 ( 5/03, 5/04 & 5/05 ) 1. Remove Power 2. Remove CPU Module 3. Remove Memory Module ( EEPROM )- 1747-M1

( Skip step 3 if a Memory Module is not Installed ) 4. Disconnect Battery 5. Locate the GND & VBB points on the back side of the processor module. 6. Using a small flat blade screw driver short the GND & VBB points for

60 Seconds. IMPORTANT : Jumper JW4 on the processor must be set to the PROTECT position.
