GuardLogix Configuration
In this chapter you will use RSLogix5000 to configure your GuardLogix controller, add and configure the
FANUC CNC AOP, import preconfigured logic modules, and edit them specifically for your application. In
addition, the logic modules include control, status, and diagnostic code that provide information to
preconfigured operator interface faceplates that you can run on personal computers or PanelView Plus terminals.
Figure 8 - Logic Modules
The machine module provides a state machine model that coordinates multiple devices and application logic for
coordinated CNC applications. It provides overall machine commands, for example start, stop, abort, clear, and
reset to the application modules and the individual device modules based on the status of the applications and
devices.
The application modules execute the machine commands and provide the more specific application commands
to the CNCs and devices. They also coordinate the machine and application status, and execute the application
fault commands. In addition, the toolkit includes control logic examples to help you create your specific
application logic.
