Preface
Studio 5000 Environment
The Studio 5000 Automation Engineering & Design Environment™ combines
engineering and design elements into a common environment. The first element
in the Studio 5000® environment is the Studio 5000 Logix Designer™ application.
The Logix Designer application is the rebranding of RSLogix™ 5000 software
and continues to be the product to program Logix5000™ controllers for discrete,
process, batch, motion, safety, and drive-based solutions.
The Studio 5000 environment is the foundation for the future of
Rockwell Automation® engineering design tools and capabilities. This
environment is the one place for design engineers to develop the elements of their
control system.
