Weird PanelView 32 Slc Tags somehow now in a Control Logix

So I've been getting around something that is confusing me.
Attached are my notes.

I have a tag that I can change in an Panelview32. I found it on the other end inside my logix 5000 program, but I can't connect the dots.

The machine used to be connected to a logix 500 SLC and was updated.

The HMI is still referencing logix 500 tags, but is somehow ending up in the logix 5000 in some way.

I can get by on this project But I would really like to know what is going on.
How does someone make tags set up for a SLC end up in logix 5000??

In testing I have changed the Current_Part_number_selected tag in the HMI and see the value in From_pnlvu Change.

Cheers.

I also found this in a "read me routine" that had nothing but rung comments

"Mapping" of data between the Logix5550 and the Panelview.
1. Panelview TAG ADDRESS MUST be in a PLC5 style such as N7:0/0 ,N7:0/1, N7:0/3, etc.. The Panelview cannot recognize Logix5000 formats directly.
2. Therefore, a "map" is created using the "Map PLC Messages" function under the "Logic" menu of the RSLogix 5000 software. Here is the map layout for this project:

Panelview Tag Address Logix 5000 Map Reference Logix 5000 Logic Reference Function

N7:0/0-15 From_Pnlvu From_Pnlvu[0].0-15 Pushbutton ON/OFF bit status from Panelview
N7:1/0-15 From_Pnlvu From_Pnlvu[1].0-15 Pushbutton ON/OFF bit status from Panelview

N11:1 THRU N11:10 SCW SCW[1] THRU SCW[10] Value of Sequence Control Words to Panelview for stations 1 thru 10

N10:1/0 THRU N10:1/15 To_Pnlvu To_Pnlvu[1].0 thru To_Pnlvu[1].15 PLC Input status bits to panelview 10100 thru 10115
N10:2/0 THRU N10:2/15 To_Pnlvu To_Pnlvu[2].0 thru To_Pnlvu[2].15 PLC Input status bits to panelview 10200 thru 10215

I also cross referenced To_Pnlvu and From_Pnlvu, I don't see any msg instructions.

Hmmmm it looks like I found it, There is a drop down called logic in the top of logix 5000 that allows you to map PLC2,3,5 (logix 500) tags.

Thanksfor all the help!

Yep, the "read me" had everything you need to know
