Preface
The Studio 5000 Automation Engineering & Design Environment® combines
engineering and design elements into a common environment. The first
element is the Studio 5000 Logix Designer® application. The Logix Designer
application is the rebranding of RSLogix 5000® software and will continue to
be the product to program Logix 5000™ 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. The Studio
5000 environment is the one place for design engineers to develop all
elements of their control system.

Overview
Chapter 2
Overview of Studio 5000 Logix Emulate
Studio 5000 Logix Emulate is a software application that emulates the
behavior of Logix5000™ controllers. Studio 5000 Logix Emulate allows
experimentation with and the debugging of application code in a controlled
environment without investing in Logix5000 controllers and I/O modules.
Studio 5000 Logix Emulate allows for the testing of HMI applications without
using a physical controller.
Program and access the emulated controller from the computer where Studio
5000 Logix Emulate is installed, or remotely through FactoryTalk Linx
Gateway.
Studio 5000 Logix Emulate for Operator Training (OTS) activates with a
unique license managed by FactoryTalk Activation. Software activation is a
process that identifies that a legitimate copy of Studio 5000 Logix Emulate is
installed on the computer.
Studio 5000 Logix Emulate for Operator Training (OTS) is licensed on a per
controller basis. Order the appropriate catalog number for the number of
controllers (represented by xx) needed to connect to external applications. For
example:
9310-WEDOT

Differences between
Logix5000 controllers and
Studio 5000 Logix Emulate
controllers
Studio 5000 Logix Emulate contains a virtual chassis that allows configuring
emulation modules. Emulation modules run as Windows services that
simulate the behavior of Logix5000 controllers and certain I/O modules.
Windows services are applications that run without interfaces of their own.

A Studio 5000 Logix Emulate controller simulates most of the behaviors of
Logix5000 controllers.
Do not depend on the Studio 5000 Logix Emulate controller to match the
performance and operation of a Logix5000 controller. Some instructions are
interpreted differently in an emulated controller than in a physical controller.
Execution times for instructions and program files are significantly different in
an emulated controller than in a physical controller.

Studio 5000 Logix Emulate is used to validate logic, such as the logic behind
HMI systems, before it is put into Logix5000 controllers. This is a brief
outline of how to implement Studio 5000 Logix Emulate in the development
of a project for increased productivity.
To use Studio 5000 Logix Emulate in project development
1. In Studio 5000 Logix Designer®, create a new project using the Studio
5000 Logix Emulate controller type.
2. Configure the Studio 5000 Logix Designer project to match the
configuration of the virtual chassis. Create a Studio 5000 Logix
Emulate controller and simulated I/O to emulate the application.
3. Develop the logic for an application and configure it to run on the
emulated controller. Use symbolic tags for I/O points and alias them to
simulated
and consumed tags. Using tags in FactoryTalk View ME and
FactoryTalk View SE to simulate I/O is supported.
4. Download the program to the emulated controller and debug it using
the tools in Studio 5000 Logix Designer.
5. After verifying the program operation with the emulated controller,
save a copy of the project for reference.
6. In Studio 5000 Logix Designer, change the controller type of a project
to use the physical controller that runs the application. Reconfigure the
I/O for the project to use the modules for the application.
7. Re-alias the I

Chapter 2 Overview
8. Remove any tracepoint and breakpoint instructions used in the
project. These do not work in a physical controller.
9. Verify the project and correct any errors.
10. Download the project to the physical controller.
Floating point calculations
There are instruction differences across programming languages, and across
Logix platforms. These examples use the operation i = n / m where all the
operands are integers:
Ladder DIV instructions perform an integer divide operation and store
the immediate result in the destination. For n = 800 and m = 1000, i is
equal to 0.
The DIV function block instruction only does floating point operation.
If necessary, the function block instruction converts the inputs to reals
and then, if necessary, converts the result from a real to the
destination type. In this example, n is converted to 800 and m is
converted to 1000. The result of the operation is 0.8. That result then
gets converted to an integer where rounding rules apply and the final
destination value is 1. This difference between ladder and function
block instructions applies to all Logix platforms. Function block
instructions only perform floating point operations.
