Chapter 9
Create a Project in RSLogix 5000 Programming Software
Introduction
In this chapter, you create a project in RSLogix 5000 programming software. In the project,
you use ladder logic to create a push button that controls a light on a digital output module.
This project is used in subsequent chapters to test communication with other devices.
Before You Begin
• Assemble the CompactLogix hardware (Chapter 1).
• Prepare the computer and verify that RSLogix 5000 software is installed (Chapter 2
).
• Configure your network.
– EtherNet/IP network (Chapter 7
)
– DeviceNet network (Chapter 8
)
What You Need
• CompactLogix I/O modules needed for your application. This example uses a
1769-OB16 module.
