1.10 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, 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.
