Downloading the Sample Program to the Processor

Note: The key switch on the front of the ControlLogix processor must be in the REM

or PROG

position.

1 If you are not already online with the processor, in RSLogix 5000 open the

Communications

menu, and then choose D

OWNLOAD

.

RSLogix 5000 will

establish communication with the processor. You do not have to download
through the processor's serial port, as shown here. You may download
through any available network connection.

2 When communication is established, RSLogix 5000 will open a confirmation

dialog box. Click the D

OWNLOAD

button to transfer the sample program to the

processor.

3 RSLogix 5000 will compile the program and transfer it to the processor. This

process may take a few minutes.

4 When the download is complete, RSLogix 5000 will open another

confirmation dialog box. If the key switch is in the REM position, click OK

to

switch the processor from PROGRAM

mode to RUN

mode.

Note: If you receive an error message during these steps, refer to your RSLogix documentation to

interpret and correct the error.
