Ladder Logic Programming—Including
Reading Inputs

Chapter Objectives

Chapter 5 provides information needed to create the PLC, SLC, or
ControlLogix Ladder Logic program that the controller will use to transmit
control I/O and messages to and from the SCANport product. In this
chapter, you will read about the following:

Software needed to create a PLC, SLC or ControlLogix ladder logic
program.

PLC, SLC, and ControlLogix ladder logic programs.

Creating a PLC, SLC, or ControlLogix ladder logic program.

This chapter assumes you are familiar with the hardware components and
programming procedures necessary to operate DeviceNet and SCANport
devices, including the following:

PLC-5, SLC-500, or ControlLogix.

1771-SDN, 1747-SDN, or 1756-DNB scanner.

Ladder programming.

RSLogix5 (for PLC-5), RSLogix500 (for SLC-5/02 through SLC 5/05),
and RSLogix 5000 (for ControlLogix).

You may need to refer to the documentation associated with these products to
create a ladder logic program.

Required Equipment

Before creating a ladder logic program for the PLC, SLC, or ControlLogix,
your PC must be:

Running RSLogix5 and RSLinx if using a PLC. Refer to http://
www.software.rockwell.com for more information on these products.

Running RSLogix500 and RSLinx if using an SLC. Refer to http://
www.software.rockwell.com for more information on these products.

Running RSLogix5000 and RSLinx if using a ControlLogix. Refer to
http://www.software.rockwell.com for more information on these
products.

Connected to and communicating with the DeviceNet network using a
1784-PCD card, 1784-PCID card, 1784-PCID5 card, or a 1770-KFD
adapter.
