Program Add-On Instructions
With version 16 of RSLogix 5000 programming software, you can design and configure sets of commonly
used instructions to increase project consistency. Similar to the built-in instructions contained in Logix5000
controllers, these instructions you create are called Add-On Instructions.
With Add-On Instructions, you can:
• insert your own instruction.
• copy an Add-On Instruction definition from another RSLogix 5000 project.
• import an Add-On Instruction definition from another RSLogix 5000 project.
