RSLogix Emulate 5000 Software
RSLogix Emulate 5000 software (9310-WED200ENE) is the emulation package for the Logix5000 controllers. RSLogix Emulate 5000 software, used in conjunction with RSLogix 5000 software, lets you run and debug your application code while at your computer. In addition, RSLogix Emulate 5000 software lets you test HMI screens, developed in FactoryTalk View SE software for example, without the need to connect to a real controller.
You can set tracepoint and breakpoint instructions (ladder diagram only) in your application code, use traces, and also vary the execution speed of the emulator. RSLogix Emulate 5000 software supports all the programming languages (ladder diagram, function block diagram, structured text, and sequential function chart). RSLogix Emulate 5000 software does not allow for control of real I/O.
Use RSLogix Emulate software for:
- troubleshooting.
Stop the process whenever a selected rung goes true, effectively freezing the process at the instant that any error occurs.
- ladder logic scanning options.
Scan your ladder logic continuously, one program scan at a time, rung-by-rung, or select a specific block of rungs to emulate. Selecting a block of rungs lets you isolate a particular section of the program for testing purposes. You can also set trace points to trace application program tags and set break points to halt program execution at predetermined locations.
