SLC500 How to inhibit modules?

4 posts in this topic

Hello, I have very extensive knowledge of the Contrologix platform and write a "Simulate routine" to "test" the PLC (in my office) logic before the unit gets sent to the panel shop for wiring. I now am working with a SLC 505 etehrnet (1747 - L553 latest and greatest) and was wondering if there was a way to create a "simulate routine" to test the logic, I normally would inhibit the Contrologix modules to do that, but what is the protocol with the SLC505? Thanx Edited by jimdi4

Never done it, but I believe you can go to the status file, then IO tab (forth tab from left) and disable all the slots, by placing a 0 in them (zero). Worth a try, I guess.
