Hi All...

Im in the process of replacing 34 older SLC100, SLC150, PLC2 with Micrologix and PLC5 ( thats what the plant electricians want ).

In the PLC2 programs wrote with 6200 software, there is some PUT instructions. What instructions would I use in RSLogix 5 to duplicate this.

Thanks

You will find a PUT instruction used in conjunction with a GET, the equivalent in PLC5 would be a MOV instruction.

Hi and Thanks,
If you wouldnt mind tho, 1 more question, just to make sure I understand ( Ive attached a screenshot ).
On the top rung, I would use a MOV instruction with the source being the value in 037, but what about the
destination.?? Could I use a N7:0 register for the 042 value..?? Or would something else work better..??

Thanks

All of the registers in a PLC2 are 16 bits, the same as a B or N file register in a PLC5, SLC or MicroLogix, so an N7 register is your best choice. If there's any 12 digit math in the PLC2 program, then go to the F8 floating point file. Also, if you haven't already, start building a translation table to track your PLC2 to PLC5 addresses. Based on your screen shot, words 031, 041 and 042 are being used for bit addresses so I'd put them in a B file, while the others can go in an N file.
