Lab 1$ Creating a %e& Controller 'ile" Configuring (our I)

In this lab, we will introduce you to the Logix product family. In this lab, you will: create a new controller file write ladder logic using symbolic tag names configure your I/O modules alias the module tags to the tags you created in your ladder logic

Follow the steps below to complete Lab 1. Place a chec*mar* in the s+uare next to each ste, as -ou com,lete it. his will help you !eep your place as you wor! through the lab exercises. Launching RSLogix5000 Programming Soft&are In this section of the lab, you will launch the "#Logix$%%% software, which will allow you to program the processor in your demo box.
"#Logix $%%%

1. &ouble clic! on the RSLogix5000 icon he "#Logix$%%% screen appears.

on the &es!top to launch "#Logix$%%% software.

Creating a %e& Controller 'ile In this section of the lab, you will create a controller file. 1. From the File menu, choose New. he 'ew (ontroller dialog appears.

). From the Type pull*down menu, choose the 1756-L63, 1756-L61 or 1756-L1 ControlLogix55xx Controller that you will use for the rest of the +ands*On sessions. ,. From the Revision pull*down menu, choose the 15 for the L-, or L-1, or 13 for the L1 * to match the re.ision of the (ontroller. /. In the Na e field, type 0CL/1010Lab0 for the controller name. $. From the C!assis Type pull*down menu, lea.e the 1756-"10 10-Slot ControlLogix C!assis selected 1or select the 12$-*32, if applicable4, to match the physical chassis in the (ontrolLogix demo unit used for this lab. -. In the Slot N# $er field, choose the slot to match the position of the Logix$$$% controller you are using for this lab. 2. In the Create %n field, use 0(:5"#Logix$%%%56ro7ects0 * you may clic! on the 8rowse button to na.igate to that directory.

hese entries are tag structures, and they contain more tags than are actually displayed in the &ata Eonitor screen. 'ote the F sign next to the tag name? this indicates that you can expand the tag structure to see more tag information 1see note in F=I section that follows the below screen4.

'(I he name Local indicates that these tags are associated with a module that is in the same chassis as the controller. he number between the colons is the slot number of the module? in this case, the module is in slot %. he characters appearing after the last colon 1i.e., the (, the I, and the O4 indicate whether the data is Configuration, Input, or utput data. his particular module has all three types of data. he #cope field abo.e the ag 'ame column displays the scope for the tags that are displayed. he scope defines the range in which tags are recogni:ed within the routines. ags created at the controller scope are accessible to all routines in all program folders? those created at the program scope are accessible only to routines within that single program folder. In this case, the tag scope is (L;1%1<Lab 1controller4, which indicates that the tags are .alid for all routines in all program folders in this controller file. If the scope field contained a program name, then the tags would be .alid only for the routines in the program folder specified. ). oggle the Controller &rgani3er ;in)ow button to display the list of tags only,

For the pushbutton switches, the designation that comes before the ) is the input point that each pushbutton is wired to on the 12$-*I81-& in slot ). For example, the first pushbutton in the first row is labeled &I%/&O%. he input point to which this pushbutton is wired is bit %. he selector switches ha.e only one designation abo.e the switch. For example, the first selector switch in the bottom row is labeled &I1). he input point to which the selector switch is wired is bit 1). For the indicator portion of the 1) combination pushbutton/indicator de.ices, the designation that comes after the ) is the output point that each indicator is wired to on one of the 12$-*O81-& modules. For example, the first two columns of indicators are wired, as labeled, to bits % through $ of the 12$-*O81-& module in slot %. he last two columns of indicators are wired, as labeled, to bits - through 11 of the 12$-*O81-& in slot /.
