• Each controller has a limited number of communication connections
(refer to its user manual for maximum connections), which limits the
number of end devices that can be connected.
In summary, unlike a ControlLogix or CompactLogix controller, programming a
PLC-5, SLC 500, or MicroLogix 1100 or MicroLogix 1400 controller by using
RSLogix 5 or RSLogix 500 software with explicit messages is more difficult, and
produces a more complex program.
