SoftLogix service automatically starting

3 posts in this topic

Hi guys, I've just installed SoftLogix to do some testing with a few drives. It seems to be working nicely so far, but there's one annoying thing it does - every time my computer starts, it automatically sets RSLinx to run as a service, and starts the SoftLogix service as well. Now, I can see why you would want to do this if you were using that computer as a softlogix PLC, but obviously in my case it's just a pain in the neck. I've gone to Administative Tools/Services, and changed both RSLinx and SoftLogix Startup Type to Manual, but every time I reboot it reverts. Has anyone got any ideas on how to stop that? I'm using Windows 7 Professional X64, and running it on VMWare Fusion, though I doubt that has anything to do with it. Thanks :)

Try this.. Go to Start>Run>type in msconfig and press Enter Once the System Configuration Utility pops up, find the line that resembles: ChassisLaunchMonitor "C:\Program Files\Rockwell Automation\SoftLogix5800\ChassisMonLauncher.bat" Uncheck the line above and press OK. Hope that helps. Edited by y2kmfic

That did it. In the startup tab was SLChassisMon, unchecked that and all good. Thanks!
