Allen-Bradley PLC, HMI, and drive programming.
PLC-5
Obsolete, still holding lines together. We support it — and we will map an upgrade path when the rack is one failed 1771 card away from a long outage.
SLC 500
RSLogix 500 and FactoryTalk View Studio. Edits to the program you have, or a new one from a blank project.
ControlLogix / CompactLogix
RSLogix 5000 and Studio 5000. Motion, safety, and standard Logix. FactoryTalk View SE and ME on the HMI side.
PowerFlex, Kinetix, and networks
Drive install and optimize, SEW and other third-party drives, EtherNet/IP, TCP/IP, DeviceNet, and I/O.

Straight answers
Allen-Bradley programming, answered.
Do you still support PLC-5 and SLC 500?
Yes. We still speak PLC-5 and SLC 500, RSLogix 500 included: edits to the program you have, or a new one from a blank project.
Can you plan an upgrade off PLC-5 or SLC 500?
Yes. We support the rack you have today and map an upgrade path off it while it still runs, instead of after one failed 1771 card turns into a long outage. How it runs: PLC-5 to ControlLogix and SLC 500 to CompactLogix.
Which Rockwell software do you work in?
RSLogix 500, RSLogix 5000, and Studio 5000 for the controllers, including motion, safety, and standard Logix, and FactoryTalk View SE and ME for the HMI.
Do you set up PowerFlex and Kinetix drives?
Yes. Drive install and optimization for PowerFlex and Kinetix, SEW and other third-party drives, plus EtherNet/IP, DeviceNet, TCP/IP, and I/O.
Do you program PanelView and FactoryTalk View HMIs?
Yes. FactoryTalk View ME, the software for PanelView Plus terminals, and FactoryTalk View SE. During a PLC-5 or SLC 500 migration, PanelView Standard and older HMIs move to FactoryTalk View ME or SE. Field note: when to stop using ME. Moving to Ignition instead? See Ignition programming.
