Posted 28 Jun 2004 I hope someone out there can help me out with this. I am looking for information on how SLC5/03 & 04 processors start-up in the rack. Not just basic information but more detail. Booting up, internal checks, loading the program etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 28 Jun 2004 I started a post a while back with the same question but I can't seem to find it. I'll keep looking. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted 29 Jun 2004 Thanks alot beryl that was just what I was looking for. Interesting enough I have never seen any books or documentation that covers this. Does AB have books detailing these things I just don't know about? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 29 Jun 2004 Jupho, “SLC” stands for “Small Logic Controller” ... basic idea: it does the same job as the PLC-5 family of processors ... but by packaging it in a smaller plastic format, Allen-Bradley can sell it for (rule of thumb) about 1/3 the cost of the heavier PLC-5 ... friendly advice: don’t run out and buy one until you’ve mastered that PLC-5/25 animal ... once you’ve got the PLC-5 behind you, the SLC platform will be quite easy to get used to ... best regards, Ron Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 29 Jun 2004 I am sure that somewhere there is a book that details this. However, I don't know where it is... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
