Start the LogixPro software Change simulations Change the switch type in the I/O simulator panel Enter rungs of ladder logic Download a project file to the simulated PLC Run the PLC program Adjust scan time Understand I/O interaction, XIC/XIO contacts, OTE coils Successfully completed the Introduction to RSLogix 500 lab Completing this lab teaches the student how to 1. Hands-on experience with Windows 2000, Windows XP or Windows Vista 2. Install LogixPro Create a new project Select a simulator panel Enter several rungs of ladder logic including branches Learn how the simulator I/O interacts with the program code Purpose This is a self-paced lab that will introduce the student to the LogixPro PLC Simulator software.

Several process animations are also included and we will be working with several of them in future homework labs. The LogixPro provides animated process simulations, including an I/O simulator with changeable switch types, output indicators, thumbwheel switches and a BCD digital readout. There is no need for any PLC hardware when using the simulator. LOGIXPRO SOFTWARE LogixPro software LogixPro allows to practice and develop your RSLogix programming skills where and when you want.
