ControlLogix brings together the benefits of the Logix platform -
common programming environment, common networks, common control
engine - to provide the high-performance your application requires
in an easy-to-use environment. Tight integration between the
programming software, controller and I/O reduces development time
and cost at commissioning and during normal operation.
With memory options ranging up to 8MB, ControlLogix controllers
support intensive process applications and provide fast processing
of motion instructions in a single integrated solution.
ControlLogix provides modular network communications that let you
purchase only what you need. Interface using ControlLogix
communication modules via a ControlLogix gateway, without the need
for a processor in the gateway chassis, or interface directly to a
ControlLogix processor.
The ControlLogix solution also provides time synchronization
capabilities, which is useful in first fault and process sequencing
applications especially.
ControlLogix offers two
different controllers for the ControlLogix platform. Both fit within a single
slot in the ControlLogix backplane, but they provide different capacity,
performance, and capabilities.

Tight integration between the I/O,
programming software, and controller
reduces development time and cost at
commissioning and during normal
operation.
During commissioning, ControlLogix
I/O allows you to be more
productive:
RSLogix 5000 software provides
diagnostic screens so you can
configure, diagnose, and fine
tune the system
An analog I/O module wizard
allows you to configure each
channel, including range
selection, alarming, filtering
and scaling, without mechanical
switches or jumpers
A digital I/O wizard allows each
discrete channel to be
configured independently for
change-of-state input behavior
and output state during a fault
During normal operation,
ControlLogix I/O modules help keep
your systems up and running:
Both standard and specialty
modules offer fault detection
(self-diagnosing) at the
module-level
RSLogix 5000 provides I/O
monitor and fault data
Electronic keying assures that a
module replacement is the
correct type and revision
The exact match option
guarantees that a replaced
module is an exact match,
critical for agency certified
pharmaceutical and other
applications
The compatible keying option
allows replacing a module with
one that is identical except for
revision level, without
immediately reconfiguring the
entire system
Selectable time-stamping of
control and diagnostic data
helps measure process
improvement
Producer/consumer technology
decreases traffic and increases
bandwidth
Diagnostic modules detect broken
wire, loss of field power and
no-load conditions
Pulsed testing of diagnostic
outputs allows pre-emptive
detection of field-side failures
You can request module
identification data
Flash memory allows module
firmware upgrades to be
performed by the end-user
Electronic fusing on select
modules allows resetting via
software

CompactLogix controllers communicate to other
Logix controllers and PanelView operator interfaces over NetLinx-based
(link to NetLinx site on ab.com) networks or over traditional
Allen-Bradley DH-485 networks. CompactLogix's full-duplex
master/remote communications capabilities provide SCADA application
support.
For advanced real-time control and information
capabilities:
connect to an Ethernet network through the integrated port
on the CompactLogix 1769-L35E controller or by using our
EtherNet/IP interface (1761-NET-ENI). The 1761-NET-ENI EtherNet/IP
interface is a less expensive alternative means of connection
that provides peer-to-peer and program upload/download
capabilities.
connect to a ControlNet network through the integrated port
on the 1769-L32C or -L35CR controllers.
connect any CompactLogix controller to a DeviceNet network
using the 1769-SDN module

Programming
RSLogix 5000 Enterprise Series software is
designed to work with the Rockwell Automation Logix platforms:
ControlLogix®, CompactLogix®, FlexLogix®,
SoftLogix5800® and DriveLogix®. With RSLogix™
5000 Enterprise Series software, you need only one software package
for sequential, process, drive, and motion control programming.
The RSLogix 5000 Enterprise Series environment offers an
easy-to-use, IEC61131-6 compliant interface, symbolic programming
with structures and arrays, and a comprehensive instruction set that
