Scalable control

According to Ro ckwell Automation , its latest RSLogix 5000 software delivers the high performance of an integrated control system for manufacturers and machine builders requiring a smaller control system.

The company says, the software brings integrated motion capabi lities on the EtherNet/ IP network to the Allen-Bradley CompactLogix controller family. Using RSLogix 5000 v20 in combination with scalable, right-sized control system components allows users to scale from 200 to 10,000 I/O points using a single control platform and common user experience. The software provides a single-development environment for the company's Integrated Architecture system.
