How to enable FBD Language in Logix 5000

[mhi 2]

Hello, I am trying to create a new Function Block Diagram routine in RSLogix 5000. However when I go to create the new routine, it is only giving me the option to create a Ladder Routine. Does anyone know what the problem is?? Is that mean I miss out to install any other feature for Logix 5000? Thank you. Regards, MHI

Not that version, did you open the link above. Do you have the "Service', "Mini", "Lite", "Standard", "Standard & Network" "Full", "Pro". not all have the optional programming languages. Contact your local AB repr.

If you have the mini, lite or standard versions then you are out of luck and will have to buy the license to activate the additional languages ( they are installed in standard version but not enabled) If you intend to buy the license to use these functions be prepared to be relieved of mega bucks.
