While the free RSLogix Micro Starter Lite can only program the MicroLogix 10 controllers, they program almost identically to the rest of the MicroLogix family, as well as the SLC-500 and PLC-5. If you work in a plant with a lot of legacy products and want to learn how to use them, then you’ll be happy to know that for several years Rockwell has made RSLogix Micro Starter Lite, RSEmulate 500, and RSLinx Classic Lite available as free downloads. Today there are three different Programmable Controller lines from Rockwell that you can learn by getting a trial copy of the programming software, and I’ll detail each below: PLC-5, SLC-500, MicroLogix Rockwell Automation (Allen-Bradley, Rockwell Software) Rockwell A-B PLC-5/SLC-500/MicroLogix/RSLogix.If you’d like me to add a vendor to the list, please contact me directly using the Submit A News Tip link.
Note: I expect the below list to grow and change over time.
So in today’s article I’ll walk through several free options to get various PLC Programming Software packages so you can learn to use and program PLCs right away. Learning to use PLCs can be frustrating if you don’t know how to get your hands on the actual PLC Programming Software.
