How to test plc program in new Rockwell Software Studio 5000 v28?

Oleksandr_Husyev · Mar 4, 2016

Hello dear experts!
In my new project I plan to use 1756-L85E processor from a new ControlLogix 5580 line.
After installation of the Studio 5000 v28 I couldn't find any RS Emulate software as it was available in RSLogix5000 v20 which I always used before.

Do you know how I can test now my plc program?
Because I can't find any appropriate information on official Rockwell Software site.

Thanks!

Any your help will be appreciated a lot!

Best regards, Oleksandr.

Looks like, unless you have the Professional Edition, then Emulate is not included in your package, although if you have a support contract relevant to your V20 and Emulate, then your licence enables you to get the latest version.

Thank you very much for fast reply!

But I have already Professional version of Studio 5000 (you can see it in the picture in attachment).

And as I checked I can select an Emulator RS5000 Controller in the drop box as a controller when I create new central chassis. But there is nothing more appearing neither in RSWho dialog nor in Path drop box. No any Virtual Backplane or something else. So how can I use it in practice?

You still need RSLogix 5000 emulator installed too. Does it show up in your Windows installed files?

Oleksandr_Husyev · Mar 4, 2016

No.
I also expected to meet RS Emulate software in installed programs but it was absent. And during installation it wasn't any appropriate checkbox to install emulator. Did I do anything wrong?

Best regards, Oleksandr

You should be able to download your licensed version from Rockwell's site.

Oleksandr_Husyev · Mar 4, 2016

Do you mean download RS Emulate soft?
I ask because I have Professional version of Studio 5000. It should be already bundled in the Studio distributive.

Best regards, Oleksandr.

It's a separate installation, I believe.

Oleksandr_Husyev · Mar 4, 2016

I can't find any RS Emulate software for Studio5000 v28 to download on Rockwell's site. Only for v24.

Then it hasn't been released yet. Seldom has the emulator been released at the same time as Studio 5000.

Oleksandr_Husyev · Mar 4, 2016

Oh, that's not good (((

In any cases thanks a lot for help!

Have a nice weekend!

Yup, It doesn't look like its available yet.

JeremyM · Mar 4, 2016

Do you have the processor?

Oleksandr_Husyev · Mar 9, 2016

No, I haven't any new hardware of 5580 series yet.

JohnCalderwood · Mar 9, 2016

Can I ask why you are using the new processor?

I was talking to some Rockwell guys yesterday, and they said that the 80 series does not have all the functionality available yet, and it is primarily aimed at the fast-moving manufacturing industry, when all the features are opened up.
No real benefits over the 70 series as of yet.
