We click on “Source A” and enter the integer we wish to increment.
We enter 1 for “Source B”, the value we want to increment by.
For the “Destination”, we enter “N7:0”. When we press “ENTER”, the entries for the “ADD” instruction are complete, and the description and symbol for “N7:0” are shown above the instruction.
We verify the rung of logic without error and save the program.
To download the program to the RSLogix 500 simulation program, we need to do two things.
First, we must start the "RSLogix Emulate 500" program to provide the container for the program we just wrote and to provide a runtime environment for the program.
The “RSLogix Emulate 500” program runs th...
To download the program to the RSLogix 500 simulation program, the second application that needs to run is “RSLinx Classic”.
This program is the same program that would be required for connection to a physical PLC.
RSLinx provides the communication drivers required to download an RSLogix 500 ...
Now, we download the ladder program to the simulator.
We can see that the program will be downloaded to the Emulator at Node 0.
A prompt asks if we want to go “Online” once we download the program to the “Emulator”.
In the “RSLogix 500” window, we see that the ladder icon is “spinning”, and ...
